The drive from Venice, Italy, to Florence, Italy was our first real introduction to the rural Italian. When we had drove from Milan to Venice it was late evening via toll highways which offered few views of the areas were were passing through. For our drive to Florence we selected secondary roads to enjoy some of the flavors of smaller Italian towns and countryside.
beautiful composition! nice capture
Olivier, thank-you!
The sections of the gazebo do have a pronounced effect on the picture that is very enhancing. Nice job of seeing how it could be used. A fine shot.

Really nice composition Earl.
Hey, thanks, Mark!
Outstanding effect. A gorgeous triptych. At times that splitting of an image feels arbitrary and forced, but you have achieved a natural one that is completely satisfying. The balance in exposures in right on target.
Triptych..for the life of me I couldn’t recall that word as I was writing this post.
Anita, thank you for the kind comments regarding this image and for finding the missing word piece in my memory puzzle that’s been haunting me. :-)
That looks like a beautiful park. And spending your lunch hour there must be wonderful. Watching the change of season and seeing the first snowbells and crocuses sprout is one of my favourite things.
I find taking my camera for walks is a good way to keep it healthy and taking good images, like this one. :-)
Earl,
Beautful photo. I love benches and wooden structures. Very warm and inviting.
