Beautiful set. I've been to both Pisa and Lucca and they are wonderful places for photography.
Thanks redmarco52; I couldn't agree more. Lucca is also a great place to wander around in and take it all in. We liked it so much that we went back less than a year later for two nights.

I lived in Italy, your tour brings back wonderful memories
I'm glad my posts have brought back wonderful memories. Where did you live in Italy? We love Italy and want to spend more time there; I'm exploring dual citizenship. I just posted another set at https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-803013-1.html

Great series, Dennis, thanks for the tour.
Thanks Earnest, I'm happy to provide the tour. Many more posts to follow, as Lucca is only day 9 of 33.

nice but not good enough angle, you should get a wider lens. also, walk a little closer, don't take photo with a tree trunk right in the middle, don't look good !

Thanks for your comments Huyen and I understand your points. This was on a walking tour with a group of people, not a photo workshop and you often don't have enough time to do other than a quick snap. These were taken with a Canon G5X MK II compact camera with a 24-120mm fixed lens. I left my Canon 90D DSLR on the ship most of the time, as I wanted to travel light when out and about. There are times when I would like to go wider and others when I would like a little more reach, but I'm fine in most instances. My "walking around lens" for the 90D is an 18-135 and if I need to go wider, I also have a 10-18. I've carried the 90D (and my previous 80D) all over and do so when I want the extra capability that I get with it. However, this was a vacation and I'm very pleased with the results that I get with a camera that will fit in a shirt pocket (it has a 20MP 1" sensor).
