Tuscany Photo Tour, Day 1 – Field of Miracles
The start of our tour around Tuscany in the “field of miracles” and the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. Of course, with a break for a wonderful lunch at a local trattoria!

Final post from Spain Spring 2014
Having a great time here in Spain! Yesterday we finished our tour of Andalucia and flew to Catalunya … now we’re in Girona. It’s a breathtakingly beautiful city! Here are some iPhone snaps from Girona plus a few places we visited last week.
Tomorrow we’re off to explore the Costa Brava!
Update from Andalucia
More quick iPhone snaps from Spain. (The “real” photos will come after I get home!)
Having a great time here! So far we’ve visited Seville, Cordoba, Jaén, Granada and we’re now in Ronda.
My client is making great photographs … leading this private tour has inspired me to consider a group workshop here in Spain, maybe in 2015.
