AWAY FROM IT ALL

21st August on Monte Lussari.
This man seems to have enough following his wife around the souvenir shops on the mountain. He just sat down on this bench and let the world go buy (or by - if you like). I would have done like him, only we were looking for some place to have a snack.
Thank you so much for looking and for your wonderful comments on yesterday's picture.

A very lovely street scene, Dione. Looks more enjoyable than the shopping!

Great use of selective color. The scene conveys a sense of story. Why is he on the bench? Who is he waiting for?

[joey d.Muli]

Great composition-- @taffy he's tired waiting for his wife doing shoe shopping for 5 hours now,ok?-hA !!:)

[Taffy]

@jodimuli A little sexist, I think!! Maybe he was complaining a lot about having to walk around and view beautiful areas and she left him sitting there??

If we visit the city we often part roads and interest. See you say about two hours later, on this place ? Great candid beautiful B+W.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

That's a lovely street scene. He looks as if he is relaxing by enjoying everyone else's busy-ness. Love your play on words in the caption too.

[Terry]

what a cool relaxing shot

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Nice work on the selective coloring! I think I might have sat down on the bench too. I am not a big shopper! Great shot.

[Angie]
