Envious!

I could happily stay lost in Italy… forever.

Boring it is not. My mom used to say people who were bored had no imagination. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Went there and had an amazing private guide. Drilled us for 5 hours about how to truly understand art. I believe the term is “smart illiterate”. Art created hundreds of years ago was to educate the people who couldn’t read. The church wanted to tell a story without words. And so they did.

Thank you

An Alley in Florence

I knew I’d fall in love with Italy. The history is rich and ancient - & in the center of Florence you can almost feel the ghosts.

Buongiorno. Listening to the new day awaken, the birds sing and the dulcet sounds of Italia. I’m in love.

I was driving along the gorge, knew it was going to be a beautiful sunset looking for a place to get a good shot. I knew I’d seen a place I wanted to shoot from some day when the light was perfect. Serendipity had me look in the rear view mirror at the perfect time.

Caught this at the perfect time to document the past just before the farmer tore it down.
