Girl On A Balcony

It was the 7th July 2008 and we had left the amphitheatre at Taormina and were walking slowly back into the town in the general direction of our pick up point to rejoin the coach for the trip back to the Island Star.

I hadn't taken many photos as we were heading for the amphitheatre as we were walking in a large group so there were too many people too close. I had known we had some free time later so I could take photos at leisure without having to try to take over the heads of people.

I saw this young girl on a balcony and she made an intruiging subject. She was just leaning against the doorway, smoking a cigarette and watching the people below. What was going through her mind? You can weave almost any kind of story about her and that's what I like about chance sightings like this. Perhaps if by chance she sees this, she can let us know! Or make up your own story!
