Jumping around geographically here's another shot of San Gimignano. I definitely would like to return at some point as we only had a few hours to explore when I was there in July 2019.

 

Well I guess it's time to come clean and admit that my last upload was the result of playing around with the new 'Sky Replacement' feature in Photoshop......... As is this one....... As shot it has a lovely but rather bland clear blue sky.

 

Presumably most people would agree that this is cheating....... What if I used a photo of a sky that I'd previously taken rather than one from Photoshops included library ?

From Wikipedia : "San Gimignano is a small walled medieval hill town in the province of Siena, Tuscany, north-central Italy. Known as the Town of Fine Towers, San Gimignano is famous for its medieval architecture, unique in the preservation of about a dozen of its tower houses, which, with its hilltop setting and encircling walls, form "an unforgettable skyline".

 

Within the walls, the well-preserved buildings include notable examples of both Romanesque and Gothic architecture, with outstanding examples of secular buildings as well as churches. The Palazzo Comunale, the Collegiate Church and Church of Sant' Agostino contain frescos, including cycles dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. The "Historic Centre of San Gimignano" is a UNESCO World Heritage Site."
