Where am I. ....?

Just for today I'm not in Perth (well I am, but my pictures not) I thought I'd escape for only one day and looking through some of my shots from a trip that Aimee and took two years ago I realized that perhaps I do have a thing for B&W.....These were all taken on the same morning, in the same location. So where do you think we are.....? Hope you have a great start to the new week.....p.s. I have no idea what the guy in the last photo is up to there in the right hand corner, it's definitely not the sort of place you can break into! p.p.s . I was going to give a clue, but it's really too easy si...!

  2. I don't have a clue where you were, but I don wonder what that guy is doing? And didn't I see uniformed men pass by right before that photo? You make B&W look so interesting...I am working on it! Have a great day!

  6. Si, e facile. Has to be St Peter's Square, Vatican city, Roma! Lovely b&w shots, but Italy can look in any colour!

  7. You must be in Italia, Roma and Al, I believe is correct, in St. Peter's Square. I was there in 1957. I was very young and in the Navy.

    Your photos are great fun and I do like the b&w.

    Have a wonderful week!

  8. I'd like to continue with the thought of Rome and the St. Peter's Sq. - must have been like touching time. Please have a good new week ahead.

  12. Yes, easy, if you were there, is the very very very long line to access to see the wonders of Saint Peter's Basilica. Great B&W shots!

  13. It does look like Italy. Lucky you. I would love to see Italy one day.

  14. I reckon you're in Rome, Italy the nuns in the last photo gave it away, hopefully :-).

  15. My vote is for Kalgoolie! The Italian end.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Great B&W shots, they really work well. The comments above seem to confirm my suspicions about the location - no, not Kalgoolie!

  17. Elegant policemen like that can only be carabinieri...

  18. You were in Rome throwing fixing Luthers list to the door?

    ReplyDelete
  19. some interesting scenarios here - I thought it was ancient Rome but then again not so ancient.

  20. I'm guessing Rome, but what would I know??!! And when the photos are this good? Who cares!!

    PS Will be using those pix from you soon. Thanx again!!

  22. I instinctively thought you would post something from Paris, but ok, Vatican City.

  23. Piazza San Pietro a Roma!! buon inizio settimana a Te...ciao

  24. My guess, without looking at what anyone else said, woudl be The Vatican Grace. Nice b&w photos and a cool idea to have an "away day" post. That wd be a neat Meme in fact?

  25. Vatican City is nice n any color.

  26. Well I guess it is Rome, the Vatican? I had a great laugh at your comment yesterday! People do strange things in the water.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm going to join the group that is guessing Rome. I'll be there in mid-May!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I'm with the others, I guess it's the Vatican. I tried to read the sign but I couldn't. :-) Love the motion of the robes on the top shot.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Seems the popular opinion is Rome .. but I am thinking its somewhere closer to home (your's not mine)

    ReplyDelete
  30. excellent b and w shots! haven't a clue where!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Instinct says to me Italy....then I look at the cops and all the tourists and I think, no, not just Italy, the Vatican City!
    Have a nice week !

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hmmm...I'm not sure where in the world this is. It looks touristy with locals inter-mixed. I'll look forward to you revealing the answer.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Looks like the Vatican to me too!

    ReplyDelete

  38. Very interesting street shots and they look great in bw :)

    ReplyDelete
  39. Yes, I'd be foolish not to agree with the others, I suspect!

    Great BW shots. I particularly like the top one. Looks very timeless and has a grainy film feel to it.
