Hello Malgorzata, first congratulation on your magnificent milestone 600 wowww, fantastic. This is not only about the famous & opulence of the Taj Mahal but also of the contrasting surrounds, the very rich & the very poor. A scene with tremendous atmosphere, well captured & realised, the monkey is the cherry on the cake. Well done
Thanks
Regards

Hello Pascale, how are you? A little strange to see people bathing with their clothes on, even more so when you see the WS fotos, a remarkable contrast, perhaps the sculptures are by males, it is the only possible explanation I have. Nice shot with the red clothing an eye catcher. I expect you will be wearing a bathing costume on the Riviera next summer?;-)
Thank you
Take care

This is a beautiful scene Klaudio, well captured. Lovely soft colours, well framed, made the most of the hanging branch, this is the type of picture I would expect to see on a canvas on your easel. No toast or corn flakes, what kind of breakfast is that?
Saluti

Hello Alfred, Fantastic bright, rich colours you have captured here, including those two alley cats was a good idea, not only for scale but interest. Those crates obstruct the paintings but are part of that narrow alleyway & the smelly atmosphere. A good, sharp & very colourful capture. In Italian graffiato as you correctly said means scratched, perhaps those that can't afford paint scratch designs on walls. Here I guess it could be defined as art but when it's on a new paint job & defaces a property it's a bloody nuisance & vandalism. Well done, I was expecting the blond. My apologies to Peter, next time.
Take care

Ciao Paolo, Beato te, sei sempre in giro ;-). Una bella collezione di facciate belle illuminate che domina il mercato, specialmente con il cielo nero. Bei colori e nitidezza perfetta, bel lavoro.
Un caro saluto da noi tutti, buone feste, a te e Paola.

Ciao

Hello Sergiy, I like this scene , in particular the grape vines & the diagonal of the supports. Colours, detail & contrast are excellent with a very interesting skyline. Beautiful rural scene.
