Sun, Shade and Silhouettes in Gorbio
Gorbio village. They knew what they were doing in medieval times when they built houses with such thick walls. The sun slams down yet the village stays shady and cool.
Built to last, love the shutters and the plants on the stairs. A picture perfect photo and a beautiful village. I wish the Villa Mer et Mont was not crumbling though, and built to last but the sea is taking it slowly unless some one rescues it. Wish it were me saving it from its fate. Still love that villa, Joanny
I can see why you fell in love with this village.

Oh, the colors, the textures, the lighting...so pretty.
ReplyDeleteJilly, even looking at (and reading) this post gives respite from the summer heat.
ReplyDeleteCharming scene, and an extraordinary challenge to photograph, with the extreme contrast between light and shade. Well done.
ReplyDeleteLovely photo, Jilly! I always love it when you feature Gorbio. :)
