Brittany took the sunflower photos as we drove on Hwy 2 through fields of sunflowers from Orvieto to Siena. We stopped the car to get out for the shots at a spot where another car was parked at the side of the road. We spotted an older man (older than me - I could tell by his completely grey hair and weathered face) standing in the fields taking photos. As he came to the road to get to his car to leave, we started to chat; he in Italian and I in English. We agreed that the fields of yellow were beautiful against the blueness of the sky, that the lighting was perfect and what a marvellous view it was. We said our goodbyes and he headed to his car. I was still standing admiring the view and watching Britt take photos when he came back to me, asked my name, reached toward me and gave me a book as a gift. Photos of Tuscany. It is a beautiful.
