"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Alix Harrow’s The Once and Future Witches

    Credo anch’io che, avendo a disposizione la tavola in grande formato, preferirei il b/n.

    Per essere in bianco e nero, comunque, è piuttosto definita: se le trovo, ti posto altre due copertine (ne ho in mente una di Greg Land e una di Cassaday) in cui veramente in bianco e nero non si capisce una mazz… ehm… non si capisce niente. In questo senso, l’uso delle ombre di Bianchi aiuta davvero.

    No no no, ci mancherebbe altro, magari! E’ roba di un professionista attualmente piuttosto quotato.
