Beautiful Evening At Po

An evening walk on the bridge on river Po, just before darkness takes over , the splendid sunset provides a spectacular view over the river.

Agostino Caresar At Palatine Gate

At Porta Palatina there is a pair of bronze status, they are of  Augustus Caesar and Julius Caesar, this pair of bronze statues depicting  are not originals but copies from the last, radical restoration of 1934. They, however, are the subject of dispute, as it placed incorrectly in the internal area occupied by statio and not outside where, possibly, would have more relevance.

The photo is the status of Augustus Caesar

Christmas Lights At Via Graibaldi

Christmas Light At Piazza Carignano

The Christmas lights at Piazza Carignano, the ground is beautifully decorated by the lights, in order to show the effect of the lights, the rest of the place seem to be cast into darkness....

Birds Watching On river Po 2

Birds watching on River Po

Beside the usual gulls which populated on the river Po, there are also the mandarins and swans occasionally the cranes come and join in to look for food....
It is rather difficult to take photo of them flying along in high speed, especially when the light condition isn't ideal, anyway tried my best to capture some of the actions.

 

  

  

 

Leading To The light

Walking through small streets like via Dei Mercanti toward a bigger street like via Garibaldi at night, often gives a sense like walking toward the light, sometimes it has a rather surreal feeling.
