My trip to Italy.  
FlorenceDuomo I went to Italy in June of 2005 by myself for a week. I visited Florence and Rome. This picture was taken in an alley by the Duomo in Florence.
FlorenceSanLorenzo For someone who loves beauty, Florence is like finding a friend. Every corner and street beckons to be explored. This picture was taken behind the San Lorenzo Duomo.
RomeSquare After spending a few days visiting all the usual tourist sights, I settled down in my favorite coffeeshop at the Piazza Republica and relaxed, read, and watched. This pillar and the building behind is taken from the middle of the Piazza.
RomeStatusAtNight2 After the stifling heat during the day, it was a relief to walk around Rome at night. This statue and the gothic architecture behind is at the Piazza Navona in downtown Rome.
RomeStairs The sheer oldness of Rome seems to give commonplace scenes a depth of texture. These stairs are at between the Foro Romano (the Forum) and the Piazza Venezia.
