Happy Monday everyone--my trip is coming to a close and I am excited to get home but I have another one of these trips in two weeks back to south east Asia!
So here are a few pics from Florence Italy--I love that city--the food, the leather goods, the art!!! Did I say the food!
You simply can not just look around you have to look up--the details was amazing!
The inside of the chapel--so peaceful and the lighting was amazing
One of the most amazing buildings I have ever seen--you must walk all the way round to get the entire effect--it is currently under rehab in spots but the amazing detail will simply leave you speechless-
Knock Knock--the doors and the knockers were so beautiful and the lighting (all natural) was so amazing with all the drama and shadows
Makes you wish you had a view like this--the city and the country simply merge-seamless--the mountains were beautiful--just beyond them is an amazing wine region as well!
I found this bust to be one of my all time favs--if you notice there is two different types of marble used--the base is one and the drape is another--the multi colors in the drape really make it look like fabric. I have to say that the eyes are a bit spooky when they are not finished-sort of empty. The detail of the hair was really cool as well--to imagine the time and skill.
Make it a great one-

I didnt get to Florence when I visited Italy. I saw Rome and Venice and every where you looked had detail, especially if you looked UP! I would love to go back and see more. The cathedrals where beautiful, and I have alot of photos, but would never know be able to scrap them. Thanks for sharing Florence with us.
