Overview

A few days walking Florence in late autumn — from the tight stone lanes of the centro storico out to the Arno, and up to the terraces of Piazzale Michelangelo where the Duomo and Santa Croce catch the last of a changeable afternoon light.

The series moves between the monumental and the quiet: the Fountain of Neptune in Piazza della Signoria, the arches of the Uffizi, the overhanging shops of Ponte Vecchio — set against smaller human moments, someone reading by the river, an old man on a bench, a whole street folded into a puddle.
