Bella sfida...ma io preferisco la sofferenza, e dev'essere una bella sofferenza averci uno schifosissimo piccione sudicio sulla spalla!

Both pics are very similar, the other one looks very divine and perfect, whereas this one provokes more of an emotional effect on the viewer.

Difficult choice, but I do like the 2 colours.

the jet trail in this kinda kills the shot for me... i like the color, but with such an old sculpture, if brings us back to modern times...

I haven't noticed it while I was taking the picture, then I had some concerns, but now I actually like it... check the line of his back, perfectly aligned with the trails!

This one is funnier, but the other one is serene, it makes me feel peaceful.

I really like both shots but this one's subject draws me in more. I also like the color. Love the title too!

I like the 2 colors in this pic, compard to the other. I do not, however, like the bird on the shoulder. It seems to take the wow factor away for me.

nice shoot fabbio! for a fraction of a second I thought it's a real person.. but then I started thinking that not many people I know (NON) are hanging out with doves on their shoulders... :P (pesky flying thing...)

but seriously... I would like to ask your permission to use this photo as a cover for the magazine I'm editing. The magazine it's called IT'S DATING TIME! and it's in pdf format, made for the "online dating" niche.

And I found this picture to go perfectly with the cover-story: "Your Online Dating Ad Gets No Response?"

Ofcourse, I will give you full credit for the cover-picture by providing a link to your flickr user account, in case you decide to give me a "GO"... The magazine would look something like the picture below...(just a sample - I will delete it in case you don't agree)

Waiting for your answer and thanks :)

PS can I cut out the dove??
