Memories of Tuscany: The Tuscan Landscape

Memories of Tuscany: The Tuscan Landscape
A few days ago, I had the pleasure to review a holiday we had way back in 2011. We stayed for a week, out of season in a holiday home, near a small commune called Cecina, about two miles from the sea and 30 miles south of Pisa.
I present here, over the next couple of weeks my pleasant memories of this area starting with an iconic Tuscan landscape, taken on our way to the beautiful towns of Volterra and Siena.

Tuscany is rightfully famous for these views George. Not too many from me with views like this but I hope you like the alternatives.

I was here a so long time ago, It was '82. I have no photos of the landscapes, only of persons.That came later. I was at the sea at Cecina. I hope you saw the avenue of the cypresses in Bolgheri.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Daniela Brocca club
Hello Dany, I think around those years of 82, people took less photos of nature than they did of their friends and family. I always took more! My next photo is from that very same sea at Cecina and so hope you will like it. Yes, I think I also saw that avenue and I have a photo of that too, to come.

Keep very well my friend. Herb

You did the soft curves of the Tuscan landscape very much justice here, Herb. I love that you used the different patches of green as well as the roads and clumps of bushes to show how the land is often a rounded patchwork.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Annalia S.
Ah, my friend Annalia, I have just seen that you live in Florence and so your comment here is even more respected and liked. I just loved that area and we were there too few days to do it real justice. The landscapes, are what we dream off - relaxing, deliciously smooth and meaningful. I felt very lucky to catch this scene like I did and I am glad my presentation helped too. More to come form here. Now I look at your photos of the same area :)

Keep well, Herb
