I have a photographer friend in Milan, he is Venetian, born and raised in Venice. He would love your work too, Marcie!!! I this picture you have captured 100% the ambiance of Italian "Viva la Vita" or "Dolce far niente" or just a ode to the great Italian life style - I mean FOOD! :)

Love the framing of this, Marcie, and the colors and intimacy of the setting. I'm getting a lot of new favorites tonight!

I really like the framing her together wit the colors and light.

What a fabulous perspective from the entry. So perfectly fuscia colored table and chairs under candlelight. Exotic a d fun at the same time.

I like the beautiful color in the interior room. Nice framing with the entrance.

Into the mystic, Marcie - such a nice dance of light, color, and texture.

these colors seem to drip onto the photo

i think this is my favorite so far. it looks perfect for a late-night dinner.

There must be treasures like this hidden all over the place. That would be so much fun to find these lovely little restaurants hidden in the nooks and crannies.

This is a secret dinner with a secret lover. It's so romantic. And my favorite so far.

such beautiful colors!

Different from the others, mysterious, almost magical, with all these frames, good work, Marcie!
I love your "hight" grain (i suppose you added grain, it's the best trick against "noise" ;)
Just an observation, Marcie, not a critic. I'm not sure the gaussian blur really adds to the image. Here, the mood of this tiny entrance, together with the wall relief, is so powerful that it should work very well without blur. Just an idea ;)

elk on 30th November 2009 @ 11:45pm
