Memories of Tuscany: Archways of San Gimignano

Memories of Tuscany: Archways of San Gimignano
As people go about their normal day and tourist look for the next souvenir shop, I run around with my camera to my eye and just shoot and shoot. Here a double arched thoroughfare lets me capture part of this medieval town in all its splendor.

I love this kind of picture Herb. I expect you were spoilt for choice with so many historic arches to look through. Cheers, Rosa.

Thanks Rosa, yes spoilt for choice would be the right way to see this. When you have walked through places like this, you realise what life is like in other arts of the world.

Cheers, Herb

Even as a tourist I almost never look for souvenir shops. I look after the cities. A so nice one.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Daniela Brocca club
Dany, you are more like us then. Of course not all tourist frequent the souvenir shops but that being said, there is nothing wrong in that and I know that the inhabitants of these tourist traps need to make a living too. In my younger days, I often bought souvenirs mainly for my family. Nowadays, it is soaking ourselves in the history and feel of these wonderful places, often whilst taking a coffee or beer. Our photos and videos keep all the memories alive today.
Keep well. Herb

Daniela Brocca club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Oh yes, sometimes I buy a souvenir, now only for me,once I took something for my parents, or a book of the place, but this is all. I don't even look the showcases. There is so much to see and as I almost always am in groups, sometimes I have to run to find the others, as I linge to take photos :-))

Yes! I love this shot Herb!

Such wonderful light and gorgeous warm colours. I love the way you've framed the shot through the archway and the detail is outstanding!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
If you are not careful Keith, you will be wanting to travel here for yourself to capture these scenes yourself. As always, very happy that you approved and enjoyed this one.

Keep safe in these hot days. Herb

Hi Herb

A very nice picture, which I like very much

Fantastic colours, especially in the flags, which you have so carefully positioned.

Wonderful composition of the different archways.

All of this goes to make your own special memory of the place!

Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
