If you would like a brief escape from the real world, I invite you to view a selection of images from my Spring trip to Tuscany at this address:

Wonderful! Particularly liked the German shepherd dog - you've managed to capture him (I'm guessing it's a him...) looking so relaxed and yet the eyes and ears show that he is alert...

Makes me want to do two things: drop everything and get out there with my camera (my new Canon 40D) and of course, go to Tuscany!!

Gorgeous images, as always, Thomas! Some of the shots of the kids were priceless.

Wonderful!

Those images of the Duomo are amazing. They are more like illustrations than photos. (that's a big compliment) smile.gif

I also love the triple sunglasses with reflections.  clap.gif


Thanks for sharing.  notworthy.gif

Thomas,

From 1996 to 1999 I lived in Tuscany (on the outskirts of Pisa).

Needless to say, your sharing prompted many fond memories. All my thanks-

Harv

I suspect that what I would need is the eye behind the camera! blush-anim-cl.gif I'll be watching for a new photographic book on the beauty of Tuscany! clap.gif Can we get an autographed copy if we pay the shipping costs? clap.gif

OH, wonderful photos!
So relaxing to look thru them, it must have been an unforgettable vacation.
I stayed in Italy many many years ago for several months and loved it.  Long before the days of digital photos,
all mine are old faded slides.
Thanks for posting these,
Jane
