THE LONG WAIT by sangwann

THE LONG WAIT

Posting early for tomorrow because we’re off to Gozo for the weekend. Hope I’ll be back with some good shots.
Tuscany holiday– day 6
Christine (my wife), Denise (my daughter) and Max wait at one of the gates of Cortona while Ian (son-in-law) and I went to fetch the car. A long wait because the car was parked far below the town. When you’re tired and fed up of climbing and descending what do you do? Swear? No, pick up the camera and take a photo to make you relax relax.
Thank you and God for your comments on the shot of the Montepulciano Lion with the human head in the mane. I can now happily cancel my appointment with the doctor to check my eyesight.


Cool shot
