Tuscany, Italy – Landscape

People travel to Italy for no other reason then to visit the Tuscany (Tuscana) region, of which Florence is the capital.  It’s a region known for its gorgeous landscapes, its rich artistic legacy and its influence on high culture.  Movies have been made about it and you often hear how beautiful and relaxing the life-style it is.

Venice to Florence, Italy, stops along the drive

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.

Venice: Windows and Doors

With all the alleyways and passages in Venice, Italy, there are thousands of interesting windows and doors.  We often wondered what one would find if they could venture behind those doors for a glimpse of the life those who live in Venice. I’ve selected these photo for their shapes, colors, textures and the interesting play of light and shadows.
