21st century juliet

July 3, 2012

Here’s one more shot that I want to share from Verona. I took it in the passage that leads into the courtyard of the house where Juliet is believed to have lived. For decades, lovers have left their hand-scribbeled notes on the walls of the passage, creating an amazing clutter of colors and shapes. It was an incredibly hot afternoon and we had been in the sun all day. I sat down in the shade of the passage to cool off for a while when two girls started taking each others pictures in front of the graffitis. The light in there was amazing so I took a couple of shots. I like this one the most, because of the pose that the girl strikes and because you can hardly see the other girl with the camera, leaving you wondering what is going on.
