Photographer’s Note

A panoramic view of Piazza Santissima Annunziata, one of my favorite squares in Florence. I'm sorry for the distortion, I do not have enough confidence with stitching.

Info from knowital.com:
Memorable for its border of delicate arcades, the piazza is one of Florence´s more enjoyable squares. The statue of Grand Duke Ferdinand is by Giambologna whilst the unusual fountain is by his pupil, Pietro Tacca, who also created the shiny-nosed boar in the Mercato Nuovo. The portico of the Spedale degli Innocenti (the first foundlings hospital in Europe) is by Brunelleschi. The church of Santissima Annunziata was founded in 1235 by seven Florentine noblemen, who chose a life of contemplation over a life of fighting between factions and families.

Please have a look to panoramic format too.

Ciao Giorgio,
le ultime tre foto postate sono bellissime.
Questa ha un'ariosità stupefacente, un colpo d'occhio che va oltre l'immaginazione.

Un grande abbraccio
Ludo

ciao Gio
nice panoramic shot, the only detail is the differences in the colours of the sky, but very nice view anyways

Hello Giorgio,

Very spectacular view, great work, I like it. I think the Large Version is especially good. I really appreciate your perfect panoptic picture.

Thank you for the sharing and best regards,

I love the LP version:)
Wide angle is enormously useful here, shows all the details, I also like the tourists sitting:)

Hi Giorgio. Indeed and beautiful square and enjoyed by a few tourists also. Good colours and details (particularly the LF). Good handling of light also. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Ciao Giorgio, l'hai ottenuta unendo più fotogrammi? Comunque sia, è un ottimo lavoro, mi piace molto per inquadratura e colori...la distorsione, vabbè, c'è tempo, va benone così ;-)
un saluto

Se avessi avuto avere confidenza con lo sticking cosa avresti tirato fuori? Veduta ampia, luminosa con ottime prospettive che rendono il senso di profondità.
