A: Do you know?

This is an upper wall section of the ruins of San Galgano, the 13th century abbey in Tuscany that I went back to shortly after I returned to Italy this past February. I just had to go back there to get some shots with my new OS lens. I really fell for the textures of those old stones and bricks against that blue sky.
