When the Clouds Open

This infrared black and white scene I captured recently during a stay in the town of Stresa on Lake Maggiore, Italy. It captures, Isola Bella, home to one of the most elaborate palaces I have ever seen...Palazzo Borromeo. The clouds opened just as I was crossing to reveal this dramatic view.
