Hi Juan,
I expect Fred Astaire to come on that street. I associate this with old American movie shoots.
Have a sunny day.

Hello Juan,
A lively composition very evocative of a rainy day; very good choice of black and white to heighten the mood even further. Good sharp and a fine range of tones.

Hello Juan - A dismal day where the B&W underlines the grey drab weather. I love the way the people seem to walk huddled together in two's and three's, heads bent under the umbrellas. A good day for staying at home with a good book! Have a good week. Rosemary

Bonjour Juan
On dirait une image d'archive tellement la technique du noir et blanc est réussie. Comme quoi on peut faire de belles choses sous la pluie.
Amicalement

hi juan,
this is a very appropriate subject, as it has rained here non stop all weekend. your choice of black and white works well when the light is poor. great composition with the repeating patterns of the umbrellas. like a scene from an impressionist painting.
regards,

Hola Juan,
Excelente B/N, en un día de lluvia con los suelos mojados creando reflejos. Un despliegue de paraguas en una bonita composición.
Ben feta.
Un abrazo, Carlos

Hola Juan!
También te has especializado en este tipo de fotos callejeras, donde la composición, como en este caso, es determinante...donde la elección de blanco y negro queda tan bien, y donde el juego de luz con la luuvia ofrece un mood tan especial!!
Me encanta...quizá pueda intentar algo así estos proximos días...ya que parece que lloverá bastante!! ;)
Un abrazo...

Hola Juan,
perfectly captured atmosphere of a rainy day. For us living in Duublin this is not autumn but we can take such picture all year long :(
I like very much the refelctions in the wet pavement and plent of umbrellas. B&W enhances the mood.
Excellent work,
M

Hello Juan, I could not help but notice these people under the umbrellas seem to paired or in small groups except for one. BW looks to have been the correct choice as it accentuates the miserable wet day. I also wondered if the umbrellas were brightly coloured it may been an entirely different shot, this works well, as someone said fitting of a scene from a old BW movie.
Regards
Santo

Hola Juan,
The POV and the composition give us such a good summary of the street, which is quite elegant and beautiful. The B&W tones give this a timeless feel,

Hola Juan,
Bel uso del blanco y negro para esta foto de calle bajo la lluvia. Has elegido un bel punto de vista que permite también ver las fachadas y los peatones.
Bergamo y su region seran el objeto de mi proxima serie de fotos.
Saludos,
Delphine
