I have scanned the print. I like the timelessness of this shot and the sense of innocence. She was surrounded by the pigeons at first and she didn’t mind. But later, one flew on her head and she minded a lot.
This shot was featured in the ‘Urban Art’ Group, the ‘Other Side of Italy’ Group, the ‘I love Italy’ Group, the ‘All Street Portraiture’ Group, the ‘Black and White Enhusiast’ Group, ‘City Life is the only Life’ Group, the ‘Retro Conglomerate’ Group and the ‘Magic of Black and White’ Group.

Hi E, just popped in for a quick shufti. I see ‘Maria’ is out of trauma therapy and back at the scene of the crime. Ha.
John, this was before the trauma of the pigeons. Miss your witty comments, John. Come back. All is forgiven….
