There is a chapter in Italo Calvino's book Invisible Cities, where all the lines of relationship between people are represented by strings of different colors stretched between poles at the various houses or buildings. Then, every so often, all the people of the city pack up everything (all the buildings too), and start over elsewhere, leaving all their old personal ties behind. And all that is left where the old city used to be is a bunch of poles with strings stretched between them. And that was the old city.

I remember as a youngster reading short stories written by Italo Calvino very popular in the 60's in Romania were we lived in those years ...

Very cool ^^ Which ones did you like best, or which left the most interesting image?
My favorite book of his (perhaps my favorite book of all) is called 'Mr. Palomar'.

unfortunately, in the haze of the years that passed, I hardly can find the right memories ...
I just recall that Italo Calvino was very "inn" at those times.

comment:
One of the comments says: delightful city composition!
And I quite agree. I wonder though, what this has to do with Street Photography
and why did you submit this photo in a group which is about Street Photography.
And as I see, from the dA category that you put it (which is right, could also be "Urban/City life")
you also do not consider this picture as street.

Dear Mr. Stamatis,
I asm very glad for all your comments this one included.
As you might recall, I have some doubts re classification, in general, but even if you are right 100% in your observation re the submission to the "street category" the chance to get you comment is already enough to justify this.
Thank you again and I promise to pay more attention in the future and becime less bothering ...
Riki

comment: You've got a lot of very good reasons to shoot here - I would say that you've got the stage, with all these lines sustaining the composition. Now on the actors side, the image lacks a bit of energy, despite all the colorful efforts of that man on the right.
By the way, I see that you have submitted this image to 80 groups already. I hope that you will nevertheless pay attention to comments of the staff of the 81st one.
