A panorama shot with A Samsung S4 of the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro in Lucca - Italy. It is a public square in the northeast quadrant of walled center of Lucca, region of Tuscany, Italy. It is cited and the ring of buildings surrounding the square, follows the shape of the former second century Roman Amphitheater of Lucca. The base of the former amphitheater is now some 3 meters below the center. At its peak about 18 rows of amphitheater seats held some 10,000 spectators. Now an urban piazza, surrounded by private residences, and occupied by a few outdoor cafes, created in 1830 by the architect Lorenzo Nottolini who razed some of the buildings inside the oval. It was originally refurbished to be a marketplace.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Superb capture, made even more interesting with your narrative. Color and lighting are excellent, perfect idea for a shot.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
So I'm seeing you're developing another specialty (like those fabulous birds and animals a few years back)--panoramics of cityscapes and architecture, with your customary high degree of quality technique. This one and the Pisa-Miracles pano are so expansive, with so much to see that it's like we're actually there. It brings to mind a couple other panos you submitted a long time ago, shot at either mountaintops or hilltops, again, like we were actually there with you. Outstanding images, Paul. Great to see you uploading again.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Outstanding shot with so many wonderful to look at and the information is superb. I'd love to be sitting there enjoying a good Italian wine.
