Pizza shop ceiling, Volterra, Tuscany
The ceiling of a Pizzeria in Volterra, Tuscany. Eating a simple Pizza under such breath taking frescoes makes life beautiful indeed.

Symphony of Church Bells




It was so quiet this morning in FFM, you could hear a pin drop. It is good Friday, and a silence, a stillness blanketed our city, a silence of respect.
And then the Church bells began their symphony, ringing out in harmony, together over our city. As beautiful a sound as any of the world's great Opera's, the bells pealed out an orchestral masterpiece, a virtuoso of the bellringers in their towers. Then one catherdral would complete a solo, then the harmony again, then another solo. (If you are fortunate enough, sometimes you can catch the cathedrals rehearsing this spectacular at various times of the year, in preparation for Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Christmas eve)I opened every window of my apartment, begging the bells to enter my home.
For half an hour this beautiful symphony played to the Citizens of FFM, and then, as if on cue, the citizens burst out into the sunlight. Now there are people walking along the river bank, with their husbans, wives, children, lovers, their dogs and with their own thoughts.
Wishing you a peaceful good friday
life is beautiful sometimes
