Lockdown The Fiftieth Day

50th day! Tuesday, it was still rainy, denser, bigger, longer.



Been stayiing home more or less for fifty days, should I consider it as an achievement?
There was nothing much to look at on the street, just rain, few people walking under the rain with umbrella and some cars passing through the street under the rain....
 



Once I would take my camera and go out to shoot some photos of reflection, but we are now still in a lockdown.



The other day, passed by the normally busy via Roma, the first person I saw on via Roma was a woman walking her dog. Next, two guys waiting outside a phramacy and a third guy crossing over into the arcade.


Via Roma leads directly to the main train station, there are many shops under the arcades along the street and it is often crowded. On the section where cars are forbidden, often there were street performances which attracted big crowd of people



Basically , in these days via Roma is empty.
In the streets without people, the shadow of the epidemic is spreading. . . .




Location : via Roma

Even after fifty days, it is shocking to see the emptiness. Your images are quite a historical record of this tough time. Be safe.

I'd consider it an achievement. Undesired, unsought, but neverthe less. You have produced beautiful documentation of what life has been like in your city.
