There is no doubt I lean hard into black and white photography but some images just need color. Some of these photographs also have a black and white counterpart—I feel sometimes I can not choose which one I prefer. Perhaps that is also a good thing; that a photograph works both in black and white, and in color.

Italy: Pisa, Lucca, Orvieto, and Firenze.

Italy 2023 — Color by Adrian Galli

Continuing the journey through Italy, Lucca, Pisa, Firenze, are some places I ventured. And, while black and white photography is usually a favorite, some images are best in color.

Italy 2023 — Black and White by Adrian Galli

What better place to start off one’s new year than Italy, with family, food, and a bottle of Franciacorta?

Covid made many of our travel plans challenging—I was to visit my father in 2020, 2021, and then again in 2022 but things were either complicated or difficult. I wanted to start off the new year with both #AYearinPhotographs and seeing my dad—and a much needed vacation.

Please enjoy these black and white photos of brilliant people of Italy, and the architecture that make the country famous around the world.
