Take a Word - Travel

For the challenge Take a Word (Travel), I have used a photo of a city on the Italian riviera (background). The small inset is actually a collage made up of various parts of a travel brochure sent to my house. I digitally reduced it in size in order to fit it onto the larger picture. The woman in the upper right looked like she could be contemplating a trip to me so I borrowed her from Dover.

One of the most enjoyable trips my dh and I made was to Italy and did include San Remo and the beautiful Italian riviera.

Please click on photo to enlarge.

    This is a great collage, Faye, and will serve as a fine memento of your trip to the Riveria. Great coming together of elements. Well done!

    Faye - this is superb. The details are amazing - so much work but with a wonderful result. I imagine that people living in those houses perched on steep hills must have to be very fit. I love the idea of the collaged travel brochure in the foregound.
    Fantastic.

    This is beautiful. I so loved Italy when I went there. I didn't get to know though the italian riviera and you gave me one more reason to wish going there again.
