I made up this little scene with the help of a young guy passing by, as a complaint that museums have not yet reopened. But they will very soon, with the decrease of infections and increase in vaccinations.
LOL Caterina - you are so wonderful in the way you can approach strangers for a chat and a photo! Having him in this photo has turned it into such a statement! :)
@robz thank you rob! It was indeed supposed to be a statement: we wanted the museums to be opened to a small number of well distanced persons. They are more important than bars and restaurants, but of course they don’t impact much on the economy. Now, however, with the vaccination going on at a good speed, also museums will be accessible. We hope in the arrival of a safe summer
@caterina I was so pleased to hear that your vaccination program is progressing so well. Your poor country seems to have been so badly affected - it's wonderful to hear that the future is looking so much better. Here's to a wonderful summer for you! Cheers Rob
Well composed with the storytelling -- and cooperative passerby! That book is important to say, reading while waiting. I do hope that the increase in vaccinations means the world will open up some more. Our museums are open but with the exception of the Van Gogh with Taffy I have only been outdoors. Good weather, good birding!
Love how you've composed this and that you asked a passerby to help- that takes guts! Looks like he's on a castle bridge over a moat what with the chains in the foreground.
@catcarter19 thank you. Yes he was a passerby with some book under his arm, so I though he would share my feelings, and he did! The castle is one of the museums in Verona, rich in beautiful paintings and statues. By the way you’ll like to hear that it has just re-opened
A nice editorial idea. And a difficult exposure in the bright sun like that. The white stones seem to have lost some of their detail in the bright sunshine. Next time, ask your anonymous model if he wouldn't mind returning on a cloud day. (Insert smiley face here) A very nice shot in every other regard.

( Thanks for you nice comment and advise. 365 is for me enough.)
