A new and decidedly modern piazza with striking office buildings, huge Unicredit tower, fountains, restaurants and shops.

More photos coming soon!

Along the streets of Milano, Italia

I collected many such pictures on our trip to Milan last September and have often done the same on past trips to Italy. They are always so fascinating especially when they give such tantalizing views of what lies beyond.

Doorways of Milano

Who works here? What do they do? Where does this doorway lead?

I found myself asking these questions every time we passed an entry like this. I collected many such pictures on our trip to Milan last September and have often done the same on past trips to Italy. They are always so fascinating especially when they give such tantalizing views of what lies beyond.

A Milano Street Scene – Pettinaroli & Figli

A bit of unplanned street photography as I took photos of interesting storefronts in the Brera District of Milan. 

We had visited this interesting store the day before but I returned to get some photos. This gentleman provided the perfect accompaniment to my photo as I snapped away.

Il Duomo In The Morning

The Duomo in Milan and it’s piazza are the living room of old town Milan. 

We saw it in nearly every time of day. Walking by for lunch. Strolling in the evening during Passeggiata and in this case, in the morning as the sun rises over it’s at spires. 

It looks different throughout the day and nearly every photo is different because of the way light plays On its ornate facade. I often liken it To a grand wedding cake created out of stone instead of frosting.

Downtown Denver Scene

Old and new in Downtown Denver. We found out on a historical house tour that much of downtown was bulldozed so there are just a few historical remnants scattered about. That is Trinity Methodist Church in the distance. One of the survivors.
