travelers stories about Hill in SR68, Italy

Hill in SR68, Italy

  15 km from San Gimignano


During a roadtrip, we stopped to enjoy the beautiful view of the hills in Tuscany. I took several shots of the landscape, and I thought that the pure nature photos would be the best ones. But it turned out that this small, powerful, and loud Italian car is the one thing that makes this picture pop, because it gives contrast to the calm scenario.

travelers stories about Landmark in The Dome, Italy

Landmark in The Dome, Italy

  38 km from San Gimignano


The typical Italian Gothic building, the Cathedral of Florence, is dedicated to “Santa Maria del Fiore”. The church was designed by Arnolfo di Cambio (c1245-1302) who considerably enlarged the existing religious structure. Finished around 1367, the Cathedral was completely covered by coloured marbles like the earlier Baptistery, except for the façade that remained unfinished and was terminated only in the 19th century. - www.museumsinflorence.com

On a trip to Florence, had a chance to capture this from the top of the Duomo, overlooking the city. The trip up the stairs to the top is not a simple one but the view is well worth it.

Town in Via della Vigna Vecchia, Italy

I was on my trip to Monaco when I took this picture. I decided to let me go by the little country as I visited unknown places. I just wanted to get lost and to discover amazing places I wouldn’t otherwise have found. So I got to a point where I was completely lost and I just entered into this mysterious but beautiful alley. I just had to take a picture of it.

During the summer it can be difficult to escape the swarms of tourists that visit the famous seaside towns of Cinque Terre. In order to capture this beautiful photo of Riomaggiore I had to climb to the end of the rock jetty that protects boats in the harbor.

Ponte Vittoria Emanuelle II in it’s nightlighting is a beautiful bridge crossing the Tiber in Rome. I saw the bridge with St. Peter’s church in the background and just wanted to freeze the moment in time. The only way to capture the beaty it deserved was by taking an HDR image.

I was in Rome with my mother and I wanted to show her first Piazza di Spagna. We didn’t know of the festivity of the day. There was the troop playing and thousands of people watching. The music, all the flowers and the hot sun were creating a classic italian summer image. This was like smiling but not expecting to do it.
