Just behind our hotel on Lipari was this small piazza decorated with a trompe l’oeil wall. The two boys sitting on the bench playing cards completed the picture of everyday life.

How accommodating of the boys! Made for a wonderful photo.
And I didn’t even have to ask them to sit there……how lucky was I.
Sometimes things just work out! Thanks Jan
Love this photo, it took a second or two to work out what was real. We’ve always wanted to go to Sicily.

Thanks Julia. I know the feeling! I was pleased they were there to add a bit to the picture. I’d love to go back to Sicily but there are so many places to visit……one day!
What a gorgeous photo! Almost timeless, and you can look at it for so long and dream… One of my favourites! 🙂
I LOVE that photo!! How perfect with the little boys. 🙂
Thanks Krista. I was lucky the boys were there, wasn’t I.
Brilliant! It’s like one of those chance photos that you have to quickly shoot or forever regret – well done for getting it. I love the mural on the wall – now I know where Banksy stole his ideas from!
Thanks again Will. How lucky was I. It was a pure fluke the kids were there when I showed up. Banksy gets around so you’d never know, would you!
