I spent the last 2 weeks eating pasta and taking photographs in Italy. Here's one of my favorite photos, taken while we ambled through the side streets of Siena. Maybe it's the frame-full of old, red brick that is so characteristic of Siena, maybe it's the simple pleasure of pigeon feeding that American tourists and local Italians alike enjoy.











This one was taken in Venice, also as we wandered off the tourist beaten path into the residential neighborhoods. The scattering of abandoned children's play vehicles was a great set up for a photo - the contrast of modern toys with historic buildings, the eerie lack of children...
