Last week I wasn't able to take a part in our weekly corner view project (too busy :) ) so I decided to make up for it this week. The theme was "street fashion". I took plenty of photos while visiting sites with my parents but in the end I decided to stick to one picture only. I took it in Milan and I think those young girls could be met in any Italian (and not only Italian) city.
This week subject is "music". In Genoa there are some places where you can meet someone playing the guitar, accordion or harmonica to gain some money from people passing them by. But it's not only about money, I think. The satisfaction and pleasure of playing on the street- this is what really counts to those public musicians. You can see it on their faces.
But I've got my own private musician at home. C. plays the guitar beautifully but not as often as I'd like him to. Sometimes when our baby is upset or doesn't want to settle down, he plays for her and she stops crying, watching him with her big eyes wide open. I love the way C. plays Eric Clapton's "Tears in Heaven" for us. Ufortunately, he didn't let me to take a photo of him playing. So, only images of one of his guitars for this week's corner view...
