Paseo in La Boca
La Boca has a particular architecture, houses of wood and veneer, both with iron balconies that have been preserved through the streets of the neighborhood. The colors of the houses represent an endless variety of paint leftover that the sailors brought to their houses, as the paint was expensive and there was barely sufficient amount to paint the entire house of the same color, they used till the very last drop. They first used up the paint for the frames, then painted the walls and went on painting till they finished the tin of paint.
so many beautiful colors and details. I do like this street photography!!:-)
