Henry Miller once said that, “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.”
I feel like as a photographer, this quote has become increasingly more relevant to me the more years I travel the world. Each year, the world becomes a smaller place as global tourism increases exponentially in nearly all of the major travel destinations. And that means that it also becomes more challenge to visually portray these places in a new and unique way.
But saying that, the fact that so many photographers visit this location only motivates me. Since we can all stand here in the same place, I get excited about trying to capture something that has been seen countless times before in a new and interesting way. That’s why when a thunder storm rolled over the city center of Florence, I set up to capture the dazzling display! :)

This photograph is wunderbar! You really got this special moment what makes this beautiful city so unique. By the way my little daughter's name is Florence.
Thanks for the compliment! I guess it's both a beautiful city and a beautiful name. :)
Very cool!
Thank you!
