Flores de Santa Gemita - 100221-8
Mario found a cool barber shop during his previous visit to Milan, and we spent some time in front of the entrance hoping to find some cool guy.
We went there earlier on and we had no luck, now we were on our way back there and I noticed Aubree: red hair, freckles, hat, cool look and just beautiful!
Aubree was walking with a group of friends and for the second time that day I was able not to be persuaded by that.
If I recall correctly, they were working on this MTV event in the main square of Milan.
Mario helped me with the reflector and I fired off a few shots, not many really: a few with Aubree facing the camera and a few slightly turned towards it: choosing this image over the others was quite tough.
We had a quick talk and learnt that Aubree comes from LA; one of her friends asked me if I could give him one of my cards since he's touring the world taking pictures and was interested to know more about my project.
Thank you so much Aubree: it was such a pleasure meeting you and I wish you all the best!

Spotted at our local garden center.
Bulbine frutescens, the wild kopieva or stalked bulbine, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Bulbine, native to southern Africa (South Africa, Lesotho, Eswatini)
This variable species grows as a small shrub, with short, low stems that produce roots down towards the ground, and slender, erect, succulent, grey-green leaves.
The flowers appear throughout the summer, on a 30 cm erect inflorescence. The flowers can be orange, yellow or white. Like all Bulbine species, the stamens are distinctively tufted ("bearded").

Colorful like the combination plate, this little Mexican café beckoned as I walked though the door. I did order the combo plate too, and wore some of it home on my shirt.
Happy Slider's Sunday everyone.
