Decaying Elegance

Uploaded: November 26, 2005

Description

Taken during our recent adriatic/Mediterranean cruise. I love the contrast between the decay of the building and the elegance of the little wrought iron "balcony". Aperture priority; ISO 100; FL 26.3mm; f/7.1, ss 1/400, +.3EV.

The color tones and textures are wonderful in this picture - the delicate ornaments of the balcony are beautifully complementing the rough wall pattern! #3470936
