 WOW! A blue! Can't believe it! Made my week!

I was walking searching for a crowd in the center of Rome (Singled-out) because I knew of a public demonstration and I met this scene 50 meters from me on the other side of the street (it's a small part of an historical building). The sunlight of a clean and chilly morning literally makes the shot.
