Thursday Doors – Sept. 1, 2016
…thanks to.Norm 2.0 for hosting Thursday Doors
Just when I thought I had used up all my photos of Italian doors I found some that I had missed from Venice. I loved the detail above the doors.

….thanks to Norm 2.0 for hosting Thursday Doors
The first photo is the entrance to an ancient Roman bath in Fiesole, just outside the city of Florence, Italy. The second photo is the entrance to the museum in Fiesole and the third photo was taken in Assisi, by the basilica of Saint Francis.

….I love these Cyprus trees
It’s a tree that I’ve only ever seen in paintings and photos but in Italy and certainly in the outskirts of Florence and in the hills of Assisi they are everywhere. Thanks to Becca Givens for hosting Sunday Trees.
Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge 2016 – Week 31
….Cee’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge can be any photo that doesn’t seem to fit into any other category
I have no idea what possessed my sister to kneel on the ground like this. I’m pretty sure she’s not praying. Her husband took this shot somewhere in Italy.
This smiling face greeted people in front of the store in the town of Lucca.
Thursday Doors – August 4, 2016
…Italy has an abundance of beautiful doors
The first is an opening leading to our son’s show at the Venice Biennale and the second is a door we passed on the Grand Canal.
For more interesting doors check out Norm 2.0
Thursday Doors – July 28th (posted July 30)
….church doors in Italy were a photographer’s dream
Every large city in Italy seems to have a Duomo or cathedral. These two doors are from the Duomo in Florence.
Thursday Doors is hosted by Norm 2.0
Cee’s Which Way Challenge – July 27, 2016 – Venice, Italy
…..pathways in Venice, Italy didn’t always lead us to where we wanted to go
This is the pathway to our hotel in Venice. It was so small that the porter who was helping us with our luggage missed it the first time we passed it.
Most of the streets and pathways in Venice were very busy but some were almost deserted. The reason for the later was due to the fact that they often ended in a dead end.
Even the canals seemed deserted at times, especially the smaller ones.
Thanks to Cee for returning the Which Way Challenge
Sunday Trees – 245
….Italy had trees that I had never seen before
We called these trees camouflage trees because of the bark. The leaves actually looked liked the leaves of a maple tree. We saw these ones in Lucca.
After doing a little research I discovered that these are sycamore trees. As always, thanks to Becca Givens for hosting Sunday Trees.
