Good on you. I have also had that ongoing mission. Would you like to see my hundreds of photos of slightly out of focus flowers where the bee had been a moment ago??
Fantastic images, really capture the spiritAnyhow, here's a few pics from the Palio in Siena, Italy taken in July. I have photographed many Palios over the last 30 odd years but after a 16 year Hiatus the town council remembered me and gave me a press pass. The Palio is a spectacular event and some of these pics as well as others taken over the years will be included in a photo book that I am planning. I shall be there again for the July and August Palios (the palio is run twice a year). If you're in the area it's a must see, it goes on for 4 days and culminates in a 90 second (3 lap) race around the Piazza. Unfortunately I missed the race this year as I had to fly home on the 4th July, the race is on 2nd July, but was cancelled for two successive days due to the bad weather. This hasnt happened for decades and caught me and alot of the other View attachment 188585View attachment 188586View attachment 188587View attachment 188588View attachment 188589View attachment 188590View attachment 188591View attachment 188592View attachment 188593View attachment 188594photographers out
