The Three Arrows
Stuck in the arcade of Casa Isolani are three arrows of mysterious origins.
Casa Isolani is a great example of a 13th-century house in Bologna. The structure is impressive, as the oak beams of the arcade reach 29 feet (9 meters) in height to support the third floor of the building.
What makes this stunning medieval structure even more intriguing are the three arrows stuck in the bottom of the third floor. They are not easy to find, as they are thin and camouflaged. It's common to see people with their heads up, looking for the unique artifacts. There are three legends that surround the arrows.
One story states that the arrows came from assassins, out to kill a nobleman or a noblewoman accused of adultery by her husband in some reiterations of the story. However, when the archers were preparing to take their shot, a woman noticed them and exposed herself to the killers. The three archers were so shocked, they shot the three arrows into the vault of the arcade, missing their target.
According to the second legend, the arrows came from a battle between two nobles and their guards. Lastly, the final story speaks of painter and engineer Raffaele Faccioli, who in 1877 was responsible for the restauration of Casa Isolani. Bologna is a city full of students and it's believed a few of them decided to shoot the three arrows into the building during the restoration.

The balloon shots were a bit of a write off when the wind just blow them in the opposite direction, but the Red Arrow put on a great show. Taken with a second hand 300mm that I've been super stoked with so far! A tad grainy as I had to crop in a little more than I would of liked due to the jets being a little too far away.
Updated in Dec 2010 - Some noise reduction treatment in LR3 and a different crop

Handsome Arrow is a Chihuahua mix. Oh, and he's my dog, so I think he's just awesome. We adopted him from Auburn Area Animal Rescue Foundation. Collar by Karma Collars.
