It was a quiet early morning. Standing in the center of the plaza, I can hear the crispy shutter sound of my D800 and its echoes from those buildings.

Ponte Vecchio waterfront at sunset in Florence Italy. This shot was taken in the mid of my walking trip and was in a hurry. It was obvious that the sunset would be something I was looking for since the west sky was clean. It took 10 minutes from west side of Ponte Vecchio to the bridge on the east side. That was my perfect location to catch the bloody sunset. The scene in the middle of my trip caught my eyes. Without hesitation, I quickly grab my camera and bracketed 3 shot to record what I saw and feel.

Renaissance Sculpture ‘The Rape of the Sabine Women’ by Giambologna in Florence Italy. (‘Rape’ is more interpret as ‘Abduction’ as opposed to sexual violation). One of the most beautiful sculptures I ever seen. The light, shadow and the details are simply stunning which drew my eyes.

Renaissance Sculpture
Renaissance Sculpture ‘The Rape of the Sabine Women’ by Giambologna in Florence Italy.

 

This art piece depicts the story in early Rome history right after its founding by Romulus.
Seeking wives in order to establish families, the Romans negotiated unsuccessfully with the Sabines, who populated the surrounding area. Romans then grabbed the Sabine women and fought off the Sabine men, which leaded to war between Roman and Sabine later. With their fathers at one side and their husbands and children the other side, Sabine women intervened and stopped the war. The battle came to an end, and the Sabines agreed to unite in one nation with the Romans.

Florence Cathedral Closeup view at sunset in Italy. In this city ever served as the center of Renaissance, it must have something unique which you never see elsewhere. Florence Cathedral (Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Flower, or Duomo di Firenze in Italian) is one of the many architecture master pieces located in the heart of the city. Look at the details and the technical challenge to build such a huge scale basilica (the dome was the largest in the world). The Cathedral itself is an unforgettable art piece.
