309 - Una Giornata Al Mare



Yesterday weather in Austria was drab and rainy, so we made a trip to Italy. Not Venice or Florence, only the Villaggio del Pescatore between Monfalcone and Trieste, not more than 180km on street from home, but it was enough to give us fine Italian see food, a harbor full of sailing boats, and all that on a warm, decently sunny day.

There was a veil of thin clouds in the sky, so light was mostly flat. Of all the images I made, this is the one I like most. It’s funny, I have made many images that day, many that are very controlled and basically came out as pre-visualized, and this is the complete opposite. It is a found image.

This is a very tight crop, and when I was there, I didn’t even recognize the patterns that you see here. Post-processing was done in Capture-NX and Photoshop.

"Una Giornata Al Mare" (A Day By The Sea) by Paolo Conte is the Song of the Day. I have it on an album that in the US is distributed as “The Best of Paolo Conte” and in Austria only as “Paolo Conte”. Fact is, I never knew that it is a best-of album.
