RE: The Streets of Bologna
A big thank you, my friend! We were actually wondering whether we should visit Siena for a day but ended up spending 3 days in Florence. What are you shooting with right now?

If you've not yet been to Siena, I would highly recommend it, and for at least a couple days. There are many day-tourists, so you get more of a local feel in the evening. The old part of the city was conquered by Florence and they were forbidden any modification to the battlements, so the skyline has hardly changed in centuries. The twisting, narrow streets and medieval architecture make for some breathtaking images, especially in the early morning light.
When I went digital, I changed to Canon. I'm back in grad school, with no budget, so I'm shooting on the original EOS 7D, now. It's over ten years old, technology-wise, but still produces some great images :-)
I will follow your advice next time I visit the region, although I have no idea when that would be :) As for the 7D, it's a fine camera. After I changing 3 bodies during the past 4-5 years, I have come to the conclusion that the camera doesn't matter that much :) How many lenses do you have?
I have some decent glass. Five lenses in total, two are L's. The problem with the 7D is that its low-light performance and dynamic range aren't great. Other than that, It's a fine body, and built like a tank.
I have only 1 lens, haha! I used to have more before but I found myself constantly changing them, which only led to frustration. So my philosophy right now is 1 camera - 1 lens :)
Lol nice. If I ever went that route, I'd probably pick up a Fujifilm x100F.
I like the creative potential swapping lenses provided. When I go on a hike, though, I usually just being the 24-70.
