IMG - A few more shots from Milan in 2003


A sunny week as a consultant in Pisa and Milan, I can think of no better
way to finish a 30-year career in geophysical exploration.

These two gallery pages were shot on my last day of work as a senior
exploration geophysicist, on May 1, 2003.

Here are a couple of new additions:

The cathedral in Milan from the back, the front was covered in
scaffolding (yes, I know, I cut off the top of the spire - 12 mm wasn't
quite wide enough)

Two versions of the same scene, heavily cropped because the weird
perspectives of the 12 mm lens made me feel a little seasick.
I'm not sure which one works best - both seem to have their own merits.
Strange that the walking people appear like cardboard cutouts or
synthetic figures in a computer generated image:

Same again in BW

The Carabinieri were out in force for the May Day demonstration.
Needless to say, it all went off very quietly.
Once again that strange CGI effect, but this time in the buildings in the background:
