58/365 – “Habemus Papam” nr.30, a photo by Luca Rossini on Flickr. Sony RX1, 35mm f2 Carl Zeiss ISO100, f/3.5, 1/640, raw Time to leave?

Sony RX1, 35mm f2 Carl Zeiss ISO100, f/3.2, 1/160, raw Most of the fuss about the new Pope and the old one may now be fading-out, but surely the hundreds of tourists constantly queuing to get in Saint Peter’s basilica are still there, […]

51/365 – “Habemus Papam” nr.23, a photo by Luca Rossini on Flickr. The show must go off. It has to.
