Beautiful architecture. This is a place on my visit list. Photos seem washed out a bit though, or were you going for a certain Lomo-esque look?

I was there in June, such an awesome place.

I see that you resisted the traditional "I'm holding up the tower" perspective shot, nice job!

How about all those vendors you have to get past to go in there? Crazy, those folks should be banned from there, really cheapens an awesome experience.

Great shots.

Excuse my ignorance but if i've achieved a Lomo-esque look, its purely accidental! :lol:

I sort of like the tones in the stone though.

They're as shot, except for contrast and recovery (sky) adjustments in Lightroom. Maybe an adjustment to the whitebalance would bring some colour back to the stone, I'll take a look?

I skipped Pisa in favor of taking a cooking class in a Tuscan 14th century farmhouse.

Darn. Guess I'll have to go back :)
