Description

Cat: MT
It has been a lifelong dream of mine to get to Italy and see Michelangelo's works. By far, the biggest highlight of my trip was seeing Michelangelo's David, and this is the first year they have allowed viewers to photograph him (no flash allowed). If ever you are in Florence, it is so worth the wait to see him!

Exif: F Number: 6.3, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/160 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 2500, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 179.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
