Gaeta, Italy

Yeah, cloudy All the time unfortunately..

Perhaps not unfortunate photographically. I like what grey days do for a lot of colours. Brighter colours certainly "pop" more on an overcast day, but I'm coming to appreciate the look of the grey and green, and some of the other darker tonal ranges on such days more and more. There are some lovely combinations in a lot of those shots.

Yeah, you are right actually.

Well Tarde, I am biased since I love Italy... It is the "old country" after all. :smile:
Ciao

Yes, it is, so old and sometimes abandoned too…!
You are from Virginia (from what I can see)?
Never been there but know a bit of the US, the Midwest, and few years ago spent an amazing and unforgettable Honeymoon in the east coast (connecticut, Massachusetts, etc).

That's Italy for you in March/April

We call March the "mese pazzo" (crazy month) for it's very unsettled weather (compared to the steadiness of the other months).

And yeah, Easter weekend is always a gamble, that we always lose :/

(PS: I'm Italian btw )

I am from Maryland (but that's beside the point since Maryland is beside Virginia), I have been in a good portion of Italy (Florence, Rome, Venice, Naples, Sorento, Pompei) but didn't stay in any one location for very long. I'm ready to go back of course.
