Photo of Florence - from where did I take this?

There are many photos of famous places which look alike. The one, above, of Florence, may appear as if it where taken from a drone or helicopter. How did everyone get a drone? But, if you go to Florence you may have the opportunity to visit the Abbey of San Miniato al Monte. The church is on the very top of a high hill. It is a 12/13th Century church and they have chanting in the late afternoons that is worth a visit. On the piazza in front of the church you see the view in this picture although I took it with a telephoto lens. It is actually some distance away. So, sometimes we wonder how someone got a shot as it looks like the land is flat - it is, except for the hills around it or a tall building nearby. One of my favorites is of the interior of the British museum. On  one of the upper floors is a small window and those of us that have discovered it all take the same view. -Mike McLellan
