I may have used F 16 to get both the indoors and outdoors in focus.

Montalcino was a nice place to visit. It got quite cool and rainy there suddenly after being warm, so we left after a short stroll.
 
I am back to teaching today, so I will post later the (few) remaining images from Pisa, Galgano and from Cortona.
 
At the base of a hill, there is a church (San Galgano Abbey) without a roof, surrounded by vineyards. At the top of the hill, a small abbey (Rotonda at Montesiepi),has the sword that is stuck inside a rock. The story is that the priest (Catholic Saint) who founded the abbey is the one who placed the sword inside the rock.

This is the ceiling of the small abbey where the sword is located.

This is the end of my photo tour of our Tuscany trip. I hope that you have enjoyed it. Thanks for the feedback.
 
Dana and Lina took some photos while we were traveling. here are some of Lina's images. I did not direct her in any way. She was walking around and taking photos when she wanted to.
