Street performers in Florence on a break

Street performers in Florence on a break

I took this photo in Florence, Italy this past summer. Europe is known to have many street performers who dress up and pretend to be statues. They stand absolutely motionless for long stretches of time, and often, tourists will make attempts to get them to move or smile (and they usually fail). I caught two of these performers on a break in a rare moment of movement.

Oh my gosh-that’s awesome! I’ve always wanted to see one just hanging out, maybe waiting for a bus. And you scored double bonus points with capturing two of them on film.
