Description

I took this shot at the end of January in Chambéry,it's the Alsatian-Savoyard 'brasserie' near our hotel where Flavia and me went to dine. An excellent choice, BTW! The weather conveys well the idea of what is going on here in Padova. The 'bora' wind blowing at more than 150 kms/h in Trieste and Venice, killed a man. I know its force since I lived in Venice for decades. Padova is more in the interior, so the 'bora' wind blew 'only' at 50-80 kms/h yesterday. Today the sun is shining, but the weatherman says we aren't out of bad weather yet. It isn't rare to have a crazy, cold March, but during the few past years we got used to a milder early spring. A bit of postwork helped to give the idea of a painting. Thank you for your kind comments.

I thought this is something like your some of your previous posts- wall painting. March is boiling us here at 35 to 40 degree celcius. Stay away from 'bora'.
