It's weird how foreign places can sometimes remind you of home. This made me think of Old Town in Stockholm - it has narrow alleys too, and both Old Town and Manarola are touristy places. I was very lucky to find this alley empty - the town core was totally packed as it neared lunch time. But then most tourists keep to the main street :).
Processing this shot was fairly easy - not many steps and not much tweaking. Only some lens correction, color enhancement and contrast adjustments. I thought about adding some blue to the blown out sky, but then it's not a large enough part of the image to matter that much, and I like the general balance of colors, so I left it. I hope you like it too.

Very inviting shot, almost tempting
ReplyDeleteYes, I remember Old Stockholm, we were there in 2013 and loved those narrow streets leading up or down.
ReplyDeleteThat white sky could easily be another wall so don't worry.
