PhotoHunt: Protection - Alessandro in Fiesole



Talk about fun! On our trip in October 07, Alessandro and I cruised around Fiesole for a morning - having a good look in the cathedral, wandering around the Roman ruins, looking in antique store windows...

REPOST! This just seemed to be perfect for the "protection" theme! Medieval protection can be seen in this antique store in the piazza in Fiesole up above Florence.

This is my latest entry.

Welcome said...

Love the theme of this design! Two knights - just one in shining armor. Prefer the good looking one on the left.

Oh how nonchalent Alessandro looks, love it! I didn't manage to get into either the cathedral or the ruins during my day in Fiesole...just gives me a reason to return (as if I needed a reason!)

Can you imagine having to wear that suit of armour? Not me! Great post for the theme. ;-)

Colin Campbell said...

Can I have one of those knight outfits? Excellent.

YTSL said...

The armour looks so heavy. One must have been really strong and fit to be able to wear it!

julie said...

Oh, a knight near a shining armor :)
