If you want to log in to the I Bonsi, then you have to go through the archway, with its tower spanning allover the way. Do not go upstairs, but …. by the slightly open door, where the soft, shimmering soft light comes from.
Here, even the 7 – 14 lens was at the end. I stood with my back to the wall :). That was the moment where i wished a fisheye lens in my bag …

Olympus E-M5, ISO200, Zuiko 7-14 @ 7 mm length

The towers of Lucca. A must-see in Italy. If you have the chance visit LUCCA. It is a small town near Pisa. You will enjoy. Beside its beautiful Piazzas and churches it has at least two wonderful towers you can climb up. The Torre de Ore and the Torre Guinigi. The last one has trees on top.

Torre de Ore

The bells of Lucca

Another view from Torre de Ore. But the highlight is the second tower.

Torre Guinigi

BTW: Both towers are about 200 meters distance from each other. And both are about 210 steep steps to the top.

And it is worth the work ….

All done with Olympus E-P3, Zuiko 12mm and Zuiko 45 mm.
