Description

There's so much to take in in the Piazza Del Duomo in the centre of Milan, Italy. In a square that seems to have been there forever, attracting tourists and locals alike by the thousands, from before sunrise till way after sundown, it's easy to get caught up in the crowds jostling for a space to get that perfect selfie with the overwhelmingly dramatic gothic Duomo as a backdrop...a sea of expectant faces looking out for their friends they've arranged to meet there....but...if you take a step back, just for a minute you see that there are many things not to be missed, among them the two massive stone lions proudly standing guard over the area. I blended textures and grain with my original black and white photograph to compliment the vintage feel of this old world Italian city scene.
