It was Spring of 2010 that found my wife and I visiting the Tuscan region of Italy. It was a particularly nice vacation since all three of our children and the future daughter in law were able to accompany us for much of the trip. One of my goals was to capture as many beautiful Tuscan landscapes as possible. This shot was taken at the entrance to the old home we rented as our home base. I used my Canon 5D MK II with Canon's 17-40mm lens. Handheld with no flash.
