Florence - Ponte Vecchio straddling the Arno

One of the most photographed monuments in Florence and quite possibly Italy's most famous bridge - finding a different way to photograph the Ponte Vecchio is a bit of a challenge. Especially with all those tourists trapsing around. Still, at least this street vendor had his wares up out on display to add something interesting to the picture.
