Made my way to an empty plaza at the Piazza del Duomo in Florence before sunrise. Wasn’t quite sure what I would get but I waited patiently as the sun rose above the horizon, its glow piercing through the alleyways and drenching the streets of this beautiful, medieval city. And then I saw him, a Florentine stranger on his bike, likely making his way to work. For an instant, under the shadow of the Duomo, I was able to freeze his fleeting silhouette against the rising light.
