485. Villa Farnesina (Rome) is an artistically and architecturally influential Renaissance villa in Via della Lungara, in the central district of Trastevere in Rome. The villa was built for Agostino Chigi, a rich Sienese banker and the treasurer of Pope Julius II. Between 1506–1510, the Sienese artist and pupil of Bramante, Baldassarre Peruzzi, aided by Giuliano da Sangallo, designed and erected the villa. In the picture: the famous Loggia di Amore e Psiche, the vault frescoed by Raphael and Giulio Romano.

486. Savona is a city in the northern Italian region of Liguria.
Savona used to be one of the chief seats of the Italian iron industry,
having iron-works and foundries, shipbuilding, railway workshops,
engineering shops, brass foundry.
One of the most celebrated former inhabitants of Savona was
the navigator Christopher Columbus, who farmed land in the area
while chronicling his journeys. 'Columbus's house', a cottage situated
in the Savona hills, lay between vegetable crops and fruit trees.

Piazza Duomo. Wonderful... but... graffiti everywhere, even in the center. Dirty. Adjust the "Sanpietrino" with the asphalt. The university area in the center is worthy of the worst areas of New York. The entrance to the chapel of the cathedral was completely written by tourists, even the wall for the entry to the Uffizi has suffered the same ruin.

Nothing irremediable, but serves a municipal that should really do something for this city.

489. SIENA - Crete senesi are literally ‘Siennese clays’ and the distinctive grey colouration of the soil gives the landscape an appearance often described as lunar. This characteristic clay, known as mattaione, represents the sediments of the Pliocene sea which covered the area between 2.5 and 4.5 million years ago. In the nearby is also the semi-arid area known as Accona Desert.

Bella foto ma del formato sbagliato (deve essere in formato landscape, 1024 px di larghezza) e comunque già postata pressochè identica solo due settimane fa. Se ti va di cambiarla bene, se no Amen.

Guys, who is taking care of our beloved resumè?

Great.

Please stop creating political controversies in a photography forum.
If you want to continue with this controversies (as usual for you) there's the skybar.
