I wanted this shot to work so bad but we were running late on our tour and I only had a few seconds to snap this photo. The perfectionist in me says it's not centered and there's too many people in it. I need to learn to let this go and just take the win. 😉 #Italy #photography

I haven't posted in a long time, for various reasons (work, uninspired, etc.) I hope to start posting more regularly. For now, here's a few pics from our recent trip to Florence and Rome over Christmas and New Year's Eve #photography #Italy
The Trevi Fountain in Rome, Italy, is illuminated at night, showcasing detailed Baroque sculptures, flowing water, and the ornate facade of the surrounding building. The image shows the Duomo in Florence, marble facade and large red-tiled dome under a clear blue sky. The architectural details include geometric patterns and ornate stonework. A close-up view of the ancient Roman Colosseum with its arched windows and stone facade, set against a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds. St. Peter’s Basilica with its large dome and ornate façade stands under a cloudy sky, with a tall obelisk topped by a cross in the foreground.

Take from a car show back in 2022.

I’m not a car guy, but I think this is a 1957 Ford Fairlane. 🧐
