Magic Hour Travelscapes

Basilica Sant Andrea, Mantova

I liked it that in the morning there was only the single light source from that window. I had settled on a composition and taken several handheld shots at high ISO and was considering setting up a tripod when this man walked into the scene absorbed by the Renaissance architecture. He was moving into a good position, the light about to hit his face and casting a shadow. I squeezed off a couple of shots, hoping that I had enough DOF and my hands would be steady enough. They were fortunately.
