love how the sun gives a variety in colors of the clouds!

That's a view. Great to look things up. Then you get an idea how tall they are.

@ Jeanette: We had a respite in the weather, as it was raining when our coaches arrived in the City. It was quite unsettled for a long while, I like the varying shades too:)

@ Carola: I agree, I also like looking down too [from an airplane preferably] but looking up is a good perspective.

@ Jidhu: Thanks, I did and I am now a follower as well:D

@ Uberrhund: LOL, yes it can make you kind of dizzy looking upwards can't it? thanks for visiting:)

@ Luna and Laura: Thanks, the Cathedral was completed in the Renaissance, so its pretty old. I love the colours of the marble they used.

Hi Jane! This picture is wonderful and especially nice for me because I'm planning my first visit to Florence.

You were at the new Weekend Reflections URL because you left a comment there. It's the same blog. The address is the only thing that's changed. If you don't mind will you check your sidebar again when you have the time and see if today's post is there.
Thanks and sorry for the trouble.

Thanks James, I hope you enjoy Florence and I will re- add your site.
