Night Scenes of Siena


Above, the church of San Francesco
(very spacious and impressive).
Below, the main Sienese bank
(formerly a Renaissance palace):




And then there's me, on the Campo,
with the Palazzo Pubblico behind me.
The Campo slants, which is why I look so small in comparison.
It was a rainy Sunday, not very pleasant to be out,
but by about 6 pm the rain had mostly trickled off,
and lots of people were out and about for their Sunday 'passegiata' or stroll.
