    Neat! I love the lighting and the expression on her face as she enjoys the first bite of the cornetto. Very old world feel.

    Such a timeless photo. With the black and white and her hair pulled back, it's hard to place it in a specific year.

    A lovely Audrey Hepburn like image, Valeria. Wonderful in B&W ... That lass certainly looks as though she is pushing that croissant down in one fell swoop ... eerr ... one fell shove.

    Rewards viewing many times over.

    Brava!

    Wonderful! I love the 'film noir' feel to so many of your photos. And you are so brave to snap people!

    Wonderful looking image in b+w. I wonder though if the subject stuffing her face would appreciate your photograph. I thought I was the only one who caught people in similar poses:)
