Une étonnante dominante rose pour cette composition impressionniste

a beautiful pastel painting! it is hard to believe you could have been standing there and holding up your camera without fainting over from the sheer beauty of the scene!
i love that your first post will set the tone for us all on V&V!

Best of luck with Vision and Verb. Looks like a great project.

A lovely photo of such a beautiful place!!

Charles Dastodd on 17th January 2010 @ 10:04pm

Love the colors of the building... I guess pirates were a huge problem in the past.

Yvonne on 17th January 2010 @ 11:14pm

i think this might be the one i like best of your Italy photographs. the buildings and cliffs feel like the same material. i also like the shapes of the tree limbs.

michele on 17th January 2010 @ 11:53pm

I love the colors, almost like a watercolor painting. Just lovely.

Teri on 18th January 2010 @ 12:10am

That's a marvellous view as landscape and abodes gel as one.

SOUL AFLAME on 18th January 2010 @ 12:41am

Wow! beautiful shot! I love the colors. looks like its right out of a fairytale!

Cassy on 18th January 2010 @ 12:43am

The images you have been showing us of Italy, Marcie, are making me want to go back to Ialy SOON. I was on a Mediteranean cruise once that took me to several cities along the coast, but driving inland would be a dream. You have really whetted my appetitie.

And NOW I'm gonna check you out at V&V. YAAAAY! I totally agree with Robin about how glad I am YOU'RE paving the way for us. Thank you.

incredible pink shades very enchanting photo, very delicate tone

fabrizio on 18th January 2010 @ 2:37am

Very pastelly and captures the Mediterranean sunlight too - the shape of the tree on the bottom right is my favourite part of the picture.

cat on 18th January 2010 @ 2:38am

It looks like a scene straight out of a fairy tale. Absolutely gorgeous!! Excellent first post at V&V, btw. =)

Toni on 18th January 2010 @ 2:46am

Zing on 18th January 2010 @ 2:52am

So jealous! Of Italy..but also your great image!

Ken on 18th January 2010 @ 6:13am

Such a beautiful pastel painting !

Pink Italy : a very good idea !

Joseph on 18th January 2010 @ 6:19am

Mmmmm....Italy - love it - looks like a beautiful place. Strange and interesting (in a good way) colours in this one

Aksel Finborud on 18th January 2010 @ 6:54am

margie on 18th January 2010 @ 10:38am

Monterosso is a beautiful place, great shot, I like the compo

BoB on 18th January 2010 @ 10:57am

Amazing structure built right up the side of the mountain. Love the delicate colors and the multi-colored look of the mountain side.

don on 18th January 2010 @ 12:25pm

I like the colors and the processing

yiannis krikis on 18th January 2010 @ 1:21pm

this reminds me of some of those old world painters works of art. After reading your first V&V post, I now understand why you embrace this style. Now there is more meaning to how I view your photos ... a whole new window has been opened.

Diane on 18th January 2010 @ 1:48pm

I have been thinking of the same thing as Diane after reading your V&V post. I just love how this makes me feel like I'm looking at a beautiful painting. Also the tree down right it's beautiful.

Frida on 18th January 2010 @ 2:44pm

Wow - wonderful soft colors and soft edges make this seem a fairy tale illustration. Well balanced composition as well.

harry on 18th January 2010 @ 3:15pm

Incredible colors, I like at left the painting style and at right, the photographic view, a nice contrast. Your journey was magic ;)

CharlesC on 18th January 2010 @ 4:02pm

Colors like a fairy tale. Beautiful.

Andrés on 18th January 2010 @ 7:47pm

oh, these colors are amazing. beautiful image.

Otto K. on 18th January 2010 @ 8:33pm

the left part of the mountain tricked me into thinking it was a reflection of sorts.. :D beautiful capture.. :)

rian on 18th January 2010 @ 8:51pm

i would probably enjoy the centro storico the most, and the pirates the least.

Seraphine on 19th January 2010 @ 1:26am

I see a bit of Cezanne here.

Anita Bower on 19th January 2010 @ 7:51am

beautiful.

david on 19th January 2010 @ 8:46am

WoW! The reds just jump out at you. Love all the lines in the images pointing to the house at the bottom. Nice.

Nick on 19th January 2010 @ 2:50pm

So soft and beautiful!

Evita on 20th January 2010 @ 12:12pm

amazing pastel colors-it does, indeed, look like a painting.

Susan on 21st January 2010 @ 5:31pm

I love the splattering of reds here and there. Wonderful.

Kellee on 24th January 2010 @ 3:40am
