It's time for another Italy Photohunt!

Here are the guidelines: You select one of your own photos to post that in some way utilizes the topic. Use the topic as a concrete prompt, or find a novel approach. Each person, just one post/photo per thread topic, (or two if you must)please. Photos should be resized to be no wider than 600 pixels. Too-large photos slow down the loading of the thread, and will be deleted. Read about how to post a photo in a thread, here. If you have an idea for a photo hunt topic, contact one of the Mods to offer the suggestion instead of beginning another thread.

Posting photos in the thread gives your permission for SlowTrav to eventually move the photos over to Photohunt albums in the SlowPhotos Galleries.

This week's prompt is "Endings."

You're encouraged to describe your photo--where you shot it, details of what you were doing or what was going on, etc.

My favourite way to end a day in Florence is to walk along the Arno and stop at this viewpoint across from the Uffizi. I love the reflections of the lights in the water and the design they make in the landscape, along with the illuminated San Miniato church on the hill top. Troppo bello!

What lovely photos!

Mine was taken in a calle in Santa Croce. If you can't read the signs, they say "Dead End".

Nearly at the end of the Venice Marathon, October 2008. This is one of the last of some dozen bridges that the runners have to cross, just after Vivaldi's PietĆ  church, on the Riva degli Schiavoni.

I was sitting in front of Santa Maria Novella station in Florence on the last day of my Oct/08 solo trip, waiting for the Terravision bus to the Pisa airport. I remember thinking that everything is marvellous in Florence, even the view from the train station. I was sad to leave this place...

I took this and the next photo in a little church outside Deruta in Umbria in 2008. Deruta, of course, is justly famous for its ceramic production. These incredible plaques have been made by townspeople for centuries to commemorate the accident victims and how they ended.

I forgot to mention that almost every inch of wall space in the church is covered by these macabre plaques!
