A recent walk through my borgo

To begin, a recent view of the full moon from my apartment through the trees just beginning to leaf out:

The lovely little passerella near my house puts on a real show once a year for about 2 weeks:

The architecture in my neighborhood would thrill me in any country. I am happy for the opportunity to slow down and enjoy what surrounds me on a daily basis.  I don’t normally pass through some of these streets in regular times:

Random moments of Florentine beauty

Some of these are of course from the archives.  Nobody would believe that Florence’s Piazza Santa Annunziata would be filled with people in April of 2020.  If it were, the police would soon be there!

But, from 20 years ago or so, I found this wonderful picture of the piazza during a plant exhibition of some kind.  Sigh. :-))

Sometimes, you just need a fresh look at an old friend.  How about the one below: the pavement of Florence’s Duomo.  Wow.

A recent drone overview of the beautiful Duomo. In shots like this, you realize just how small Florence is.  See the Piazza della Repubblica to the left.

And a recent shot from the arbored passerella near my apartment.  I love wisteria so much!
