I Love Rome

Roman House of Gold (8x10 Fine Art Print)

This is another street scene in Rome. I suppose that graffiti is just accepted as a part of life there.

This is part of a series of images I took in Italy last year along with Roman Street Scene (Still Life With Scooter).

Roman Spigot, an 8x10 Photograph

There are water fountains all over Rome. Some are more ancient than others. This is another instance of an image that appears to have spot color special effects - but it doesn't. I love that look of an image that appears to be monochrome but isn't.

Alex of Upright Brewing asked me for an 8x10 print of this image.

Still Life with Scooter

I took this one in Rome.

There I was, just walking along down an ally in Rome. Scooters were everywhere, as they always are. If there's space to park, there's a scooter. Sidewalks, pedestrian pathways - everywhere they don't get run over, they park. The juxtaposition of the ancient and the brand-new is beautiful.

I'm a bit fascinated with scenes that appear to be partly grayscale and partly color. I assure you that the look is natural to this image - I didn't spot color it at all.

I have a 40" x 60" print of this if anyone's interested.
