Alcuni bei fiori fotografati in un vivaio

Alcuni bei fiori fotografati in un vivaio.
Qualche settimana fa, anzi direi un paio di mesi, sono stato con mia moglie a visitare un grande vivaio di fiori e piante della mia zona.
Non mi sono potuto esimere dallo scattare decine di foto e piano piano le inserirò.
Di alcuni fiori sono riuscito a sapere il nome, di altri proprio no.
Qui ne pubblico un po’!

Ti piacciono i fiori e magari sai indicarmi i nomi di quelli nelle foto? Scrivimelo lasciando un commento here.

A glimpse under the arcades of the historic center of Chiavari.
I always enjoy photographing the arcades of Chiavari and, every time I go, I always look for a new corner to take some photos.

The architectural layout remained unchanged until the late sixteenth century; from that time onwards new noble palaces were built within the walls in the contemporary Renaissance style. The choice of the new architectural style was especially evident in the main streets Ravaschieri and Stefano Rivarola where palaces very similar to other buildings in Genoa were erected or revised. From 1648, or perhaps from 1646, it received the title of City from the Republic of Genoa.

The colorful houses among the streets of Burano

Alcune case colorate tra le calli di Burano vicino a Venezia

Some colorful houses among the streets of Burano near Venice.
I will never tire of posting the photos I took, a few months ago now, among the splendid little streets (I'm not really sure if they are called calli here too, than in Venice) of the village of Burano.
The bright colors are truly photogenic!

A glimpse of Burano, the small and famous Venetian island.
One of the many little squares in the village of Burano, the famous island in the Venetian lagoon which, together with Murano, Venice and Torcello, are one of the most famous postcards of our beautiful Italy.
The pastel-colored houses, in this glimpse, have all the colors of the rainbow, fantastic!

From under the arcades of the small square of Portofino

Da sotto i portici della piazzetta di Portofino

From under the porticoes of the little square of Portofino.
When you have the chance to visit Portofino in winter you realize how its beauty is that of the classic Ligurian seaside villages, a little reserved and solitary. It's a whole different story when it is assailed by tourists.

Since the great influx of foreign guests – first British and then German – in the early twentieth century, Portofino’s economy has been closely linked to tourism. The local “Piazzetta” overlooked by public refreshment areas, shops, boutiques and other commercial activities was recognized in July 2012 as a Historic Place of Italy, the first and only certificate issued by the association of the same name, for its historical and cultural value.

A stroll among the colorful houses of Burano

Due passi tra le case colorate di Burano

A walk among the colored houses of Burano.
A few months ago I finally went to visit the islands of the Venetian lagoon and I must say that, even though I had already seen the colored houses of Burano in photos and videos, the reality even exceeds expectations!
As you can see from this (and all) photos:

The colorful houses of Burano island

Le celebri case colorate dell'isola di Burano vicino a Venezia

The famous colored houses of the island of Burano near Venice.
I have seen many photos of the colored houses but I finally managed to see them, and photograph them, with my own eyes (and my lenses!).
And I must tell the truth that walking through the canals of the island is truly an unforgettable and, perhaps, unparalleled experience.

The terraced houses of Marina Giulia in Chiavari

Le casette a schiera della zona chiamata Marina Giulia a Chiavari

The terraced houses in the area called Marina Giulia in Chiavari.
The houses in this street (or small neighborhood) close to the Chiavari seaside promenade.
If it weren't for the colors of the facades, very Genoese, you would think you were in London.
Built (if I'm not mistaken) at the beginning of the 20th century, with its colorful houses with entrances raised above street level (and a mezzanine level below street level), it looks like a typical London street.
