Trattoria in Classical Blue Neon Over Vintage Fading Beige Pastels

Image...
To me, this is a gorgeous scene...the picture evokes so many thoughts. First, I have to say that with all of the noisy commotion pounding on us right now with the July Fourth Weekend: the manically-batty efforts of politicians to grab more media attention, the winding down and newly impending armed conflicts abroad...this little scene offers a welcome, peaceful respite. It's a great shot, you can tell that this photographer enjoys working outside with the subtle moodiness of cloudiness and occasional rain.

And...very nice blue neon. Places in Europe still seem to be using classical neon signs a lot more than we do here. And the mix of the crispness, the composition and the historic, fading pastel beige colors is highlighted by the angle of the shot...all coming together for a very calming effect. Could sit down and have a quiet little meal there...maybe some pasta with boar's meat sauce.

    This is an wonderfully overwhelming view. It has been said so well I can not contribute more to it. It is worthy of a place among my best collected.

    Hi wayseeker,

    Thanks very much for your kind comment. Yes, this scene evoked a number of emotions and thoughts for me, which I spent a great deal of time, perhaps three hours or more, unpacking them and then formulating a crystallized expression of my impressions. I enjoyed it.

    My best wishes to you.
