  6. @ amaramara: sai carissima, quando ti trovi per caso tra delfini da un lato e una candida spiaggia dall'altro, devi pur trovare un soggetto da riprendere... :D

    @ linda: it's possible, it's possible.. hehehe

  10. @ kristin: well, I gladly accept your compliment. See, framing a photo is like focusing your attention on a subject, purposely forgetting what's outside. And it is there where you discover beauty again. Less is more....

    have a nice day

  11. Thank you for your photo and words, -a-c-. The general thought here seems to be that opposites attract, though less poetically spoken. But while this may be true, there is exoticism to consider which does not often lead to engagement and appreciation of difference.
