Default Square of miracles
Another one from my recent holiday.
This is the Battistero di San Giovanni located at the Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles) in Pisa, Italy.

Took me about 10 minutes waiting for all the people to clear out of the way to get this one photo

Also just over to the side and out of the shot is the famous leaning tower.


The Baptistry of St. John

People can be so inconsiderate when we are trying to take photographs lol.. Seriously, this is great capture and well worth the wait. Nice contrast with the sky too.
Nice work Silverz.
