After a few days of showers we are back to early autumn sunshine. Autumn is one of my favourite times of the year (after Spring), still warm but not hot like summer and the colours in October are amazing, yellows. oranges and deep reds. I liked this large expanse of shadow in Piazza Garibaldi, creating a good contrast with the sun-kissed building in the middle of the sketch.
Another trip down to Lucca for materials. Lucca is well worth a visit if you are in Tuscany. I prefer it to Florence - more relaxing, quieter, smaller and its the birthplace of Puccini and some lovely cafes!
