    you have done well to showcase this piece. its a refreshing take on the dome and is striking in its use of light and off axis composition. i love how the shadow detail hangs on till the very last edge of the frame. very dynamic. bravo.

    For those who have not seen it in the wild – The Pantheon and the square within which it sits are superbly challenging to photographers. First there are the thirty million tourists and Romans who mill about the area… after all this is a working city – of one of the world’s most elegantly important capitals. Then there’s the building itself which has been so often pictured that almost any new image is likely to feel like a clichéd postal card. Finally, there’s the searing lighting when most tourists show up that makes the contrasts an enormous challenge.

    Sooo…. with that in mind… LOOKIT THIS! Here’s an evocative image of the world’s oldest continually used building which captures its mystery and grandeur as if it weren’t built some two millennia ago. Thanks for sharing Rosina…
