Rafa,

I visited the botanic gardens in Lucca a few years ago and really enjoyed them - great taxodium. A walk around the walls of the town is a lovely experience.

Enjoy! Paddy

Paddy, I only saw some pictures in their website. Unfortunately I can't visit it in September, Lucca must be a beautiful city!

Beautiful Rafa. Lucca is a lovely city. It has the oldest pizzeria in Italy.

Great shots, Cliff.

I think Franz Kostner needs to call the fire brigade.

Beautiful images Mick.
Taken by Henley (aged 3). He decided he wanted to use grandads camera for the day and chose his own subjects.
