Perhaps the second most famous bridge in the world? ;) The first day we were in Florence it rained. I'm glad I went back a second day so I could get this shot. Thanks to all who view and comment.

This is the bridge, where they sell all that gold, or? Fantastic image, it could be sold as a postcard. I would buy and send it.

I never tire of seeing this bridge. There is so much life on it, around it...I'd love to see it for myself someday, but in the meantime, I'll just enjoy the views my friends take of this lovely piece of architecture and smile :)

Fantabulous shot, Donna! I love this. The skies have cleared and we can see bridges upon bridges, which only makes sense in a city built on water. I love the rooftops and I especially love all the people that can be seen standing on the bridge. I really love this shot!

Great shot. I have seen many shots of this bridge, including the ones I've taken myself, and never have I seen one so great in scope.

I have seen this bridge before of cource, but never from this angle, and i like it a lot, specialy since it shows several bridges after eachother.
But it remains a strange bridge hey :-)

Interesting image. I love how the buildings and houses are built over the water. Wonder how much a home on the bridge costs and how they get utilities? Thanks for this great view.
