A man twirls his umbrella while Rome burns

comments welcome

original and a bit strange (funny?), jana

I love the feel of this image. As is usual for you, the juxtaposition of subjects within the image creates a wonderful sense of depth, in this case the diagonal row begining with the man and ending with the statue. You also seem quite fond of foggy weather. Is Milwaukee weather that foggy? or do you run for the door whenever you see a nice bank of fog rolling in ? Great title, the colour shift does make it look as if a fire was raging in the background. This of course begs the rhetorical question; why then would the man be gazing casually in the opposite direction ? I tend to linger and get lost in your photographs.

Gordon, it's not foggy that often here in Milwaukee but when it is, I do go running.
