These tall narrow painted houses, with the washing hanging out, are a feature of this small port in the Cinque Terre region on the west coast of Italy.

From Wikipedia:-

"Portovenere (sometimes, in English, Porto Venere) is a town and commune (municipality) located on the Ligurian coast of Italy in the province of La Spezia. It comprises the three villages of Fezzano, Le Grazie and Portovenere, and the three islands of Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto. In 1997 Portovenere and the villages of Cinque Terre were designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site."

Hello Peter! Amazing composition. Excellent perspective and colors. Wonderful picture. Regards!

Hi Peter,
A lot of character in this photo.
Great scene of these old houses, good balance in the composition plus a bit of street action to add to the interest. Amazing looking place, I guess you just have to give up on the lens correction in this image - you'll never get those buildings looking straight!
:)

I love this one Peter. The boat leads in the eye so well. If I were to be really pernickity I would say that it is a pity you did not quite get all the boat. More positively the yellows and oranges are marvellous
