People in the Florence Rain

On the steps of  Santa Croce


Crossing Ponte Santa Trinita

Via degli Speziali


Walking in The Piazza della Repubblica
Florence, Italy

I've always liked rain and now I enjoy taking pictures in it. Thankfully I haven't ruined my camera yet.

I really like the first shot, very artistic.

Amazon sells really inexpensive clear plastic bags to protect cameras and they work pretty well, although they are a bit awkward.

The first 2 are amazing for me. Those would be my favorites. Both are so beautifully composed. Love the black and white, and the muted tones in the second too. Looking at your photography from Italy, I would never choose to fight the crowds of spring. The rain makes the images so unique! Your work has hit a new level from this trip!
