project black : take one

Project Black
hosted by Anna Carson Photography





Our sailing vacation was interrupted by a short business meeting in Italy. We had a drink at this place which had black furniture and a great urban view! The wall also shows black... but I didn't have a Black Russian!

    I love the artsy look of those chairs. Were they comfy? Looks cold -- or HOT! Couldn't have that here.

    Very good! I also like that tall "black" doorway across the street. Lots of activity--and black--here. All of it good. Nice shot. Thanks.

    LOL! Well, you should have! That was quick thinkin' -- to capture black on your vacation! OH! I just remembered now that I have some BLACK from MY vacation too! But this morning I just popped up a quick archive shot to get me going! I completely MISSED the announcement of PB! (obviously...)

    Well if you want me to feel bad that you had to stop in Italy, I don't! I'm jealous! Great image for project black.

    A sailing vacation AND a stop in Italy? Not bad, even without a black russian. I like the shot of the sail right below too.

    Lots of interesting details in this photo. I'm always intrigued by the icons built into the architecture in Europe.

    absolutely a great urban view

    I noticed how the little green ball plant stand out with the security gate behind it and that great archway

    my long winded way of saying how much there is to discover in your photo

    This is a scene I'd love to just step into. OOoo--it'd be great for a scene in a movie!

    Looks like you were ready to go for Project Black, too...I guess all of "us" should have some in the archives while we're eager to take new captures.

    Good first take on the black theme. I'm not participating but I am sure I'll enjoy the black posts you and others do. It's a good one to work with.

    I wish we could go to Italy or anywhere right now and I'd sit at any color table...you just happened to get the gorgeous black one.

    Of course only in a sunny country black furniture looks nice ! We are back and as soon as we crossed the border after Aachen it started to rain ! Italy, Austria, Germany sunny, Belgium rain ! Thank you so much for your birthday wishes ! I had a very nice one ! the cousin and his wife Mr. Gattino had digged out after 20 years, turned out very funny and we had a lot of laughter !
