My photo of the week 18

Something of the 1960's about this one, just how I like it. Taken on a 1952 Voigtländer Bessa II 6x9 folding camera, this afternoon.

Nice shot!
The atmosphere is 60ish, but of course the clothing isn't.

Bath, England or Les Bains-en-Angleterre. They have a tournament in the centre of the city every Summer and everyone gets drunk on champagne.

Bravo!

Thanks. I will be in Venice next week, meeting up with gj from the forum. I'll try and get some similar styles around the area, just for you.

That's what I meant. It looks like it's been moved to the Med.

I'll be very grateful if you will show me/us shots of Venice ....so that I can put them in my office !.
I really like your photos, your shots always have great scenic qualities and an impressive attention to the relationship with light.

I hope you spend beautiful days in Italy and please convey my greetings to Gj,

ciao
Giambattista

It would be an honour, you are very kind. Though I do not print many photos, so I will have to send you the final digital images (large) and you can get them printed locally.
