Lens Artists Photo Challenge – Going Back
…thanks to John Steiner for hosting this week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge
I think we all appreciate photo challenges that don’t require going outside of our homes during this pandemic. We certainly aren’t travelling to exotic places but we can look back on trips we took in the past. Here are a few of my favourite trips over the last few years.
Venice, Italy
Florence, Italy
Assisi, Italy
Rome, Italy
Prince Edward County
London, England

What makes you feel small? Standing under a very tall tree, sitting inside a very large church, looking up at a dinosaur or sitting in an oversized chair?

Friendly Friday Photo Challenge – Tourism
….thanks to Snow from The Snow Melts Somewhere for this week’s Friendly Friday Photo Challenge
I know that tourism is good for the economy and that many communities around the world rely heavily on tourism. When possible we try to travel in the off season to avoid large crowds. There are times, however, when that is not possible. One time was the summer our son got married in Italy.
I loved Italy but we did avoid some areas because of the heavy foot traffic from tourists. Most of the places we visited were very popular and the crowds were unavoidable. Two of those places were Venice and Rome. Despite the large number of tourists, we thoroughly enjoyed both cities.

One Word Photo Challenge – Horse
….. thanks to Jennifer Nicole Wells
For this week’s photo challenge Jennifer chose the word Horse. Last summer I photographed a number of horses in Italy. They were all in large public squares and were obviously working horses.
