The back streets of Florence
An evening wandering the back streets of Florence...
I love to wander when I travel. Sure, like everyone else I also make long lists of places I want to shoot. You have to have a list or else you will forget stuff. But I always build in time for some wandering - and it's usually some of my favorite shooting.
I shot today's images one evening in Florence, Italy. We were staying in an apartment just south of the River Arno and the Ponte Vecchio - literally, just a 5 minute walk. It was a great location. One evening I just wandered around our neighborhood and took a bunch of street scenes like this one.
I have a crazy thing about street scenes, I just absolutely love them. I guess it's the lines and the architecture that draw me in. I'm not really sure. I just know that I seek these scenes out when I travel. It's my thing. I know people aren't really going to line up to buy this sort of work, but I don't care. I just have to shoot them. Do you have a subject like that?
Oh, and if you want to see me process this top image, I used it as one of my images in my recent Aurora HDR 2017 webinar I did with Macphun. You can find that video below. Thanks!
