A view of the Dorsoduro neighborhood of Venice. The prominent bell tower closest to the foreground belongs to the church of Santa Maria dei Carmini.

A bell tower in the medieval town of LaCoste looks out over the wooded hills of the Luberon. Trivia: in 2003 the town served as the location for the film "Swimming Pool" starring Charlotte Rampling.

Santa Francesca Romana

This church, built in the latter part of the 10th century, is located along the ancient Roman Forum. The campanile in the background was built in the 12th century.
I added a gold texture by boccacino.

Harbor View, Split

This view of Split's beautiful harbor area was taken from the bell tower of Saint Duje cathedral.

Lacoste Bell Tower

Nearly devoid of tourists on the day I visited, Lacoste's narrow cobbled lanes, tiled roofs and stone structures hint of a town very much at peace with its past. A hilltown with a population of fewer than 500, Lacoste is a wonderful place to wander and enjoy views overlooking the beautiful Vaucluse valley.
