Duomo, Florence
Photograph by Courtney Townsend, My Shot
After climbing approximately 400 stairs to the top of the bell tower in Florence, Italy, I was completely exhausted and began to wonder why I had chosen to climb it in the first place. However, after looking out at the beautiful view of Florence and capturing this image, I knew my climb had been worth it. I was glad I was able to capture the majestic beauty of the dome and the rest of Florence sprawling behind it.

Shepherd, Appian Way
Photograph by Joe Routon, My Shot
While visiting Rome, my wife and I were on the Appian Way when we spotted an approaching cloud of dust in the distance. As it drew nearer, we realized that it was a flock of sheep. As the sheep were herded under the aqueduct, I had the realization that this event was something that had happened daily for thousands of years—I was a witness to an ancient and unchanged ritual.

Mount Stromboli
Photograph by Fredrik Schenholm, My Shot
It is amazing to watch a volcano erupt and to experience how new land forms. This is what Earth could have looked like four billions years ago, with erupting volcanoes and an atmosphere lacking oxygen, producing a different color in the sky. The image was taken in Italy, on the volcano Stromboli, in March 2009.
