isn't that venetian red ?

piety and futurism colliding painfully outside the ferrovia

show-off lighting

 

the other lovely astrological clock ... at padua

 

overdue for restoration, the astrological clock at padua

 

built for comfort

a shopper's friend in the markets at padua

a great city for bicycles ... it is pretty flat and there are thousands of students and easy-riding shoppers

built for comfort

a trader's old friend in the fabulous market at padua

 

fabulous flora

the orto botanico di padova claims to be the world's oldest surviving botanical garden in any university

not fade away

 

handled with care

 

scratchy-feely door at the pescaria

chimbley pot and italian flag
