Pisa - Last day (page 6/22)

Baptistry 2

Here we see the famous Baptistry on the Field of Miracles. To its left is the cemetery; to its right is the cathedral, the Duomo of Pisa, and in the far background on the right is the Leaning Tower, appearing almost upright because of the wide-angle lens. [more...]

Baptistry, Duomo, Bell-Tower

The baptistry (left), the cathedral (middle) and the bell-tower (the Leaning Tower of Pisa) in the background.

Cathedral

The Duomo, showing some of the pillared arches, and with the Baptistry in the foreground.

Cemetary

The cemetery is perhaps the least exuberant of the buildings, and maybe that’s appropriate. [more...]

Wide angle baptistry

It almost doesn’t look like a building at all, but like an object placed there by some almighty hand. Perhaps that’s why it’s called the Field of Miracles. [more...]

Niche

A niche in the corner of the city wall perhaps once held a shrine to the Virgin mary or some other idol.

Leaning Baptistry of Pisa

Mostly wide-angle lens distortion here.

Bird.

There was a pigeon in the wall.
