Postcards from Italy

I will remember this holiday as one where I saw images in a different way. So many things I saw reminded me of my pbase friends. So in the time-honoured tradition of sending holiday postcards, I took an image which reminded me of a colour, a theme, a composition or a style of the pbasers who have helped me learn more in the past year than I did in the previous ten!
