Proof follows:

These days I spend much time and more mind into work issues, and sometimes it shows.
So there I was yesterday afternoon, reaching into the depths before someone noticed and herded me back to the shop and please stay put. But their wine is delicious, and I'll have some more soon (and I live so near I could go there on foot in an afternoon - but bringing back a few bottles would be rather difficult).

And here we are, looking at the last pics, and re-imagining them.

It was cold, oh so cold and the wolf, oh poor wolf, was dying of cold and hunger. (it always works)

Afternoon, train, Florence, two. And a great sun awaits us.

Each time we step into places, sometimes calm.

And more await outside, like this lovely example of brutalism.

Fast forward to the morning, and a place on the Etruscan Coast where you can lie, roast, chat

And dinner in Pisa before heading home, with a drink or two before that, while they put their nose into the guide, Samui style.

And morning, too, west into Pistoia where it's always closed, but not today.

Outside the town gets busy, preapring for the oh-so-expensive blues festival everyone loves to hate. Actually, prices drove off most of the crowd to little mini-festivals sprouted into life all around. But this doesn't mean they don't prepare, and ready the pamphlets in more languages. Just ask.

Walk, have a niiice breakfast, and into a place for the Surprise to bring home.

I'll have to set a few of those in front of my desk too

Outside, interaction and checking aplenty.

Who is doing the checking? di alfrjw, su Flickr

They didn't think working here could be so hot. To him, it feels like Africa - actually, it's about 35°C and this doesn't stop the lady from touching every tomato.

Meanwhile, someone is reevaluating priorities, values, choices.

Have the bike, but. di alfrjw, su Flickr

And in the end, so many people saying the same word together.

And that's all.
All with E-PL3 and Lightroom. Lens info on Flickr.

Some real stunners in there Alf x

your photos are always a treat. It really is a different world. It's like a 5 minute vacation for me. Thanks! Now I must go to work :(

Oh, and one more in B&W. Quite a lot of tonal adjustment in Lr4 in this, trying to bring back what I was doing as a kid with dirt cheap black and white film and the school lab, noise and all.
