Honorable Mention
Summer Song
DESCRIPTION
An image out of my Urban Tapestry series. Milan, Italy. In August when the heat is at its peak, the normally hectic city slows down to the speed of a turtle. The best way to survive is to take it easy as well. I was imediately struck by the beautiful olive green background, which gives such a beautiful contrast to the rhythm of the windows. The orange / brown shutters beautifully reflects the warmth of the sun. For the rest no significant changes were needed: the scale of this house in the summer felt like a song to me. AUTHOR
