  1. How did you ever get a shot with so many empty tables outside Florien's??? Shame about the weather - with a bit of sun this would have been great. I like the groupings of tourists and pigeons though and the viewpoint is sufficiently close to Bellini's famous painting of the "Procession in St Mark's Square" to make hanging them alongside rather fun.

    Like it - but please read the guidelines on image sizing - very few people have their monitors set to view 1200 pixel-high images and it's distracting having to scroll up & down.
  2. Damn right -it's very hard to capture the Campo from nearby, but it's better early in the morning when the sun illuminates those buildings on the east of the square and makes the colours shine. Still, tuscan weather can be so fickle! Perhaps a little bit more of the Palazzo Publico would have helped? Like the way you've caught the curve of the ground though.

    Try not to let the highlights burn out - it's very distracting, likewise the loss of detail in pussy's right eye. Cropping top and left would also make for a more powerful composition.

    Like it! The window/curtain on the left's a bit bright for me - if it were mine I'd burn that in a bit - but the framing of the girl and the range of tones behind her are beautiful.
  3. Excellent - for me this is definitely the best in your folder. The fact that this is my favourite hotel in my favourite city has nothing to do with it!

    The repetition of forms gives it an almost Escher-like quality and the little touches of blue from the flower vases perfectly offset the red carpets and otherwise monochromatic scheme of the floor tiles and banisters. I particularly like the way you can just see the flowers on the next floor down, creating the expectation that the arrangement continues all the way down.
