I remember Summertime in Venice With Rossano Brazzi and Audrey Hepburn; a very old but a good film and very good music.
Good Evening my friend
It's a very good composition and very beautifull colours.
Va bene.
Ciao

Very cool photo. Their positions are great a reversal of each other there.
The reflected scene in the sun glasses is great too. Fantastic details all around.

I just wish You had captured his whole hand.

Hi Itzik, THAT guy has such a pokerface! I didn't know that mirrorglasses were still worn, but he does.
I like the red ribbons of the hat very much, somehow red in an image really attracts the attention. Lovely double portrait.

Very Venetian flavor photo, specially the the gondolier with the red ribbon on his hat. The other gondolier with the very modern shade, a necklace and tatoos on both of his arm looks very Hollywoodish to me. Despite "him" there is still the venetian flovor.

by the way, thank you for your comment on my photo, "Old City Hall."

Hi Yitzhak
Your new stile is completely different and to be honest I need to get used to it.
There is some playfulness and some mysterious in it
But it is NOT the graphical eye you had.

This capture is very mysterious, both guys not recognizable and still dressed up as gondoliers.
Maybe they are the Mafia under cover ?

Nice juxtaposition. DOF allows us to focus on the people.

Hi Yitzhat
Very beautifull color. This frame is nice. The gondoliers seems to be in meditation.
Well done

Hi Yitzhak

I like the back to back pose, & symmetry, of the 2 gondoliers. Excellent pov & color. Well done!

L'image est d'un cadrage superbe et en plus la qualité de la photo est exellente.
Je suppose que sur votre grande version on vous vois dans ces grosses lunettes.
Bravo Yitzhak
