Photographer's Note
The Arno is a river in the Tuscany region of Italy. It is the most important river of central Italy after the Tiber.
It crosses Florence, where it passes below the Ponte Vecchio and the Santa Trìnita bridge (built by Bartolomeo Ammanati, but inspired by Michelangelo). The river flooded this city regularly in historical times, the last occasion being the famous flood of 1966.

Hello Malgorzata,
A lovely postcard from the beautiful city of Florence. I like the composition and point of view, using the wall as a frame and the lamp to create depth. The lighting is very attractive and the detail exceptional. And, of course, some very lovely reflections.

Hi Malgorzata
Beautiful riverscene in such a wonderful light and colors and calm water and reflections. Perfect composition and pov with great depth taking the eyes through such a lovely spot. The row of building and splash of red are so attractive and standout so superbly, the strret lamp post is well placed in the left frame. Contrast to the blue sky is gorgeous, excellent image well taken, But I wonder why there is a vignetting effect on four corners!
Thanks for sharing. Congrats
