Via Appia Antica (The Appian Way)

I had never heard of the Appian Way and was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful it was to walk it. Not only were there bikers on the road…

Excavating: Capo Di Bove

I’m not positive but I think this excavation was at Capo Di Bove along the Appian Way. After we had visited the Spanish Steps we took the subway…

Trevi Fountain

“The central figure of the fountain, in front of a large niche, is Neptune, god of the sea. He is riding a chariot in the shape of a…

Day and Night: Fontana di Trevi

Here we have the most impressive fountain that I saw in Rome. The Trevi Fountain is an amazing piece of architecture. As you are walking through the narrow…

Fountain of Neptune

I loved that there was an orange building behind this fountain. It made for a perfect background! Again I love the detail in these statues and the fact…

Fontana di Nettuno

This is the third fountain found in Piazza Novona. Fontana di Nettuno (The Fountain of Neptune), was originally called the Calderai, because of its close proximity to the…

Fountain of Four Rivers

Here we have a few close up shots of Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fountain of Four Rivers). The detail to these statues are so impressive, and while hard…

Night and Day: Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi

There are three fountains located in the Piazza Navona, Fontana del Moro (yesterday’s photo), Fontana di Nettuno and Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, which are fed by the Aqua…

Fontana del Moro

The Fontana del Moro is found in Rome’s Piazza Navona. Piazza Novona is the most famous baroque square in Rome, built on the site of the ancient athletic…

Trashed

Here we have the number one image that most people picked to have entered into the contest. It’s funny that this was so well liked when for me…

Through the Water Fountain

Here we have the second most popular pick from those I polled and one that I entered into the contest. This was one of my top picks. I…

Backhoe

Our meeting place for the photo walk was in the financial district right outside this Brueggers bagel shop. While we were waiting this backhoe and two other men…

Girl at North End Park

This image was the fourth highest picked by the folks I tallied for an entry photo in Scott Kelby’s Second Annual Worldwide Photo Walk. It’s very similar to…

Boy at North End Park

I’m going to take another break from the Rome travel photos. I ended up going out to Saquish for the weekend and didn’t have time to process any…

Pantheon Fountain: Smile

Last shot of the Pantheon (for now anyway) and maybe the beginning of lots of fountain shots. There were plenty of fountains to see in Rome. It was…

Inside the Pantheon

From looking at the outside of the Pantheon I sure wouldn’t have guessed it was this extravagant on the inside. It looked as if it was built only…

The Pantheon

The hotel we stayed at in Rome was in a perfect location. We were literally right behind the Pantheon. If I was at all confused about where the…

Artist at Campo de Fiori

Here we have another artist. Chris, Karen and I decided to go to dinner one night in Piazza Campa d. Fiori. As we were walking around the plazza…

Spanish Steps Artist

I mentioned in last week’s photo of the Spanish Steps that when you made it to the top of the steps they had a lot of artists drawing…

The Spanish Steps

Another view of the Spanish Steps. As you can see the flowers were very pretty. When you reached the top of the steps there were a bunch of…

Piazza di Spagna

The Spanish Steps was probably the most crowded place we went. It’s amazing how many people come here. Like everyone else we had to make our way up…

The Arch of Constantine

This phot was taken while I was standing upstairs in the Colosseum. In the foreground is the Arch of Constantine and in the back right corner you can…

The Colosseum

Inside or outside this structure is jaw dropping impressive. “The Coliseum is one of the most imposing ancient structures. Imagine it all white, completely covered in splendid travertine…

Flavian Amphitheater (Roman Colosseum)

I know I keep saying this but here’s another place that was huge. The colosseum by far was the most massive structure we saw! If you look closely…
