Last Night Shot in Rome

Ok, this is the last one.
Completing the round trip through Rome, I walked by the river and saw this church.
With the light inside, the tree right over me, I couldn’t resist. Continue reading

Another Night Shot in Rome

I guess this starts to give an idea of how much I walked that night.
Now at the Fontana di Trevi, I had to fight to get a clear shooting position. With all the tour groups, wedding parties, and the not that polite people around me, it was quite the challenge to find a spot where: Continue reading

Ceasar and Me

You never know what you are going to find during a night walk (which is probably one of the things that attract me so much).
In my case, after more than 10 miles, 2 batteries completely drained and a serious calf ache the next morning, what I came home with were some nice shots, like this one. Continue reading

Usually, I will know what phase the Moon is in, but this night was at the end of a rather busy week and I had no idea what our satellite was doing. Little did I know… Continue reading

A still unanswered question

Bob Dylan asked it and someone in Rome was wondering the same thing while having a bit of paint available.

I wonder if Bob would have an issue with someone riding down the road in a cool Italian moped instead of simply walking it… Can we get a ruling on this?… Continue reading

Not surprisingly, there were very few houses on this alley. It is hard work finding one… Continue reading

Travelling to Roma, the Eternal City

October 16th, 2009 flip 2 comments

Here are the pictures from the Rome trip I took for a wedding (and my birthday, by chance).
It was one of the nicest birthdays I’ve had so far. In addition to that, I had not visited Rome in quite some time (last time I was 12 or 13) and it was wonderful to see the city as a grown up. It also made me realize how little I remembered… Continue reading
