I thought I would give you all a break from birds birds birds birds and sunsets of Anna Maria.
(And to answer Sinbad's prodding to embarrass myself on the number of sunset photos I have ... well, let's just say it is in the 4 digits. I need help.)
So as I was strolling through old travel photos looking for some other subject, I came upon another part of the world that I love.
Italy.
It was fun going down memory lane selecting and editing the photos in Topaz Fusion and HDR Efex. The originals are not the best since it was back in 2006 and I was using my Nikon point and shoot. I remembered that at the time I thought they were pretty good. Oh, to have had my DSLR back then.

| Siena - home of the Palio, the medieval horse race |
 |
| Umbria's hilltown - Orvieto |
 |
| Orvieto - sitting 1,000 feet above the valley |
 |
| Pompeii - buried in 79AD under 15-20 feet of ash and pumice |
 |
| Pompeii ruins |
 |
| Pompeii human remains |
 |
| The magnificent Colosseum in Rome |
 |
| The back alleys of Venice |
 |
| And more side alleys of Venice |
 |
| Ravello on the Amalfi Coast |
 |
| Sunset beauty on the Amalfi Coast |
I'm ready to go back.
Oh, by the way ... Italians have the best food!
Now I'm hungry.
