Hello Emanuele,
A nice view of these old buildings with good definition and colours. The dog half hidden behind the barrel adds a touch of humour.

Hola Emanuele:
Me ha gustado esta fotografía desde que la he visto. Me gusta tu punto de vista y la presencia de la pared en el lado izquierdo, que en cierto modo encuadra la foto. Es una pena que el perro no salga entero.
Un bonito rincón: Un saludo

ciao emanuele,
quite interesting, i love the archi photos from those small italian towns and villages, they are moody, very nostalgic, and full of charm;
just one remark - pitty for the dog being half-hidden;
take care, j.

Hello Emanuele,
I love images like this one and yours is superb. I love that the photo is nice and sharp and the textures of the old rustic walls shows up so clearly. I love that the patterns in the paving which looks slightly wet has moss on them it looks great. To me the perfect photo. Thank you so much for sharing.
Cheers,
Debbie

bonjour emanuele
j'aime beaucoup le jaune de ces vieilles maisons, le vert des volets clos.Le linge qui sèche à la fenêtre prouve pourtant qu'elles sont encore habitées.
bravo et merci du partage

Hello Emanuele,
This is a well composed image, where you create a pleasant sense of depth by including the yellow corner to the left side!
Pavement is charming, the balcony likewise...
Good textures and colours, the dog is a big asset!

Ciao Emanuele,
Lovely composition where almost everything is partially shown (even the dog). It offers a good atmosphere of old city quarters, where you enjoy to walk around and happily get lost.

Very nice view of a traditional street, full of little details such as th wood barrel, the helf hidden dog and the pavement of the street. Good colors and very good sharpness.

All the best,

Emmanuel

Wow Emanuele:

First off, I do have to say that I envy you being in Europe and having so many beautiful cities to photograph! This is a great photo in many ways. The recent rain (?) helped to saturate the colors, and the lighting looks soft, subdued, and yet glowing. I think however my favorite aspect of this photo is its blending of old and new. The cobblestone street contrasts with the manhole lid. The beautiful green shutters and old walls contrast with the steel garage door. It's unfortunate that so much of what we call "progress" diminishes the beauty already surrounding us. Your picture captures this well. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Emanuele,
Lovely POV with little shown and the rest is left to one's imagination to fill in what is around each unseen corner. Very good color to the shutters and the curious dog who is exploring these historical cobblestone streets.
Regards, Tom

Hi Emanuele.

There is no people in the photo, but the dog can fill the emptyness.
Also good composition and nice colours.

Regards and happy new year.

Ciao Emanuele,
una bonita imagen de la vieja arquitectura de la ciudad, con una elegante organización de los elementos que aparecen en tu composición.
Buena luz y bellos colores en la foto. Me gusta el efecto del barril en la calle y el perro que aparece detrás.
Es un buen trabajo.
Un abbraccio,
Josep

Ciao Emanuele
I want first to apologize for my long delay to answer to your kind words; I've been away from home since january.
Lovely scenery here that reminds me of the historic district of a city due to the stylish old materials of street and walls.
Quite a spirited view!
Ciao.
Robert
