Street in Florence

Street in Florence, Italy

iPhone X, 28mm, ISO 20, f1.8, 1/193s

May 2019. Taken in Florence, Italy. I grew up in a rural town where everything was very far apart, so the tight streets of cities have always felt a bit claustrophobic to me. You can see El Duomo in the background. I think its presence makes this shot seem even more closed off.

Tight Space in Baltimore

My Mamiya 6 in Baltimore a couple months ago captured this tight space...and a lonely one at that.
