Cambio d’abito – da Argo a Mindina

Tutti insieme, due teste di limone su moto arancione, saremo degli agrumi che vagano per il mondo… 😀

After this, in Color Efex, made a formula with cross processing, dark contrast and cross balance…

and here the “after”…

The Reward of the Environment

The passion (and the lucky) to travel always involve some sacrifices, economic and sometimes even phisycal…

But during my trip, ride as by plane, there is always a reward waiting for me and that makes you say that it’s always worth.

Inspired by the weekly photo challenge (reward) and travel theme (environment), here’s what I mean
