June 2012 in Bologna Italy

Alan and Cyane spent the last week of June 2012 in Bologna Italy, coming for the film festival of old movies put on by the Cinoteca di Bologna:  La Cinema Ritrovato.


The themes in the following pages are: movies (all day every day during the festival, and into the night), walls, arches and arcades, doors, gates and courtyards, and the enveloping heat.  Please note the saturated glorious colors of ochre, red, pink which saturate the frame of view and the photos that follow.
