An early start......

I was out early this morning and hardly a soul in sight; there were one or two people walking and two brave souls were bathing in one of the rock pools at the side of the lake, but the only person I spoke to was the local refuse collector. The sky had quite a bit of pink in it this morning it but it's not come through in any of my photos.

I'm staying in the north of Italy, a short distance but a world away from the devastation and tragedy of a the recent earthquake in central Italy - my heartfelt thoughts and sympathy goes out to the Italian people.
