A great day out with Francesco! - I recently took a full day photo shoot with Francesco and had a wonderful time. Rather than do sunrise through to sunset in one day, Francesco was happy to split the itinerary over two days, which suited me perfectly. Sunrise was, at my request, in the Old Town of Bologna plus San Lucca and sunset was in the rural surrounds of Bologna. Francesco is very knowledgeable and was able to provide me with great instruction for using Photopills for subsequent photo shoots. If you are in Bologna and love photography, I cannot recommend Francesco's photography tour more highly; you will have a great day out!
