Nice set, John - my favourite has to be no. 3 and your caption really adds to it

Hi John, superb set full of wonderful Italian faces with great colours. You've done it again, and once more I prefer the hand, especially with the shirt sticking out below the jacket. On reflection, I think the single hands are my favourites, although I do like the lovely young lady in #5. Sorry to read it's the last of the series.

 

[Kiasmum]

More beautifully captured expressions Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that the third time that the young lady in #5 has made an appearance

More great shots John . I agree Kiasmum, was thinking the same thing as I scrolled down.

Thanks Karin and John - yes and I have some more of her - she was a striking figure heading up 'Fanfara', the bright red uniformed outfit - very tall, very composed and obviously very photogenic and by god can she wield a mace

by god can she wield a mace

Will we see her weilding her mace?

Will we see her weilding her mace?

It doesn't bear thinking about. On the other hand, maybe it does.

Generally so, and generally don't mind having pics taken either! ....

I have only just returned to TP after some "personal time off" and you 3 threads on the Italian bands have really captured my attention. I have enjoyed all pics and I am hard-pressed to pick a "winner", they are all so good.

Let me know if you do come back. I actually live about one hour west of lake Garda on the other lake, Iseo, much smaller. Perhaps we can get together and I could learn a bit off you!

Thats a deal Paolo although I'm not sure about the learning stuff I'll trade you what little I know for some Italian lessons

3 &5 from this set and No7 from the first are my pick, all good but these 3 stand out for me.

Some would work well in B&W also.
