“Let’s go see that mouth of truth thing”, she said. / “Where is it?”, you replied. / “It’s like a big mouth and you put your hand in.” / “But where, it’s not on this map.” / “Let’s go this way.”

The Roman Colosseum on a particularly bright winter afternoon Built in the first century of the modern calendar and known as the Flavian Amphitheater in that time. / / Nearly dismantled in the middle ages, it was spared. Look now at the crowds visiting it and imagine what it must have been like in Ancient times…

A brief moment on the Tiber River, birthplace of the Roman Civilization. This photo shows Roma under a blanket of clouds with rays of light reflecting in the river. A moment, albeit a simple one, in the eternal city.

From a magical winter afternoon on the Isle of Capri near Naples, Italy. It was our last day in the area, and we only had a few hours on Capri. When we reached the summit to see Villa Jovis, home to the ancient Roman Emperors, it was closed, but through the kindness of a local, we got in anyway. / This view must be why emperors of ancient Roma built palaces here, and I know it’s why this will not be the last time I see Capri.

The Colosseum is probably the most impressive building of the Roman empire. Originally known as the Flavian Amphitheater, it was the largest building of the era. Best shot I got without a tripod – taken 06/12/2007 leaning on a bin!! /

This is my take on the goddess of love VENUS The Birth of Venus is a painting by Sandro Botticelli. It depicts the goddess Venus, having emerged from the sea as a full grown woman, arriving at the sea-shore (Venus Anadyomene motif). The painting is currently in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. / For details see it in large view Size : 110×110 cm , Air brushing on canvas.

/ MCN: MCN:C172A-42E72-ECC79 this image is about Sara la Kali, Sara the Black, Saint Sarah, the patron saint of the gypsies. every year in may there is a procession where Sara la Kali is carried out into the sea to re-enact her arrival in france. there are of course various legends about her, the one shown here is the following one: Another account has Sarah welcoming the Three Marys into Gaul. Franz de Ville (1956) writes: One of our people who received the first Revelation was Sara the Kali. She was of noble birth and was chief of her tribe on the banks of the Rhône. She knew the secrets that had been transmitted to her… The Rom at that period practiced a polytheistic religion, and once a year they took out on their shoulders the statue of Ishtari (Astarte) and went into the sea to receive benediction there. One day Sara had visions which informed her that the Saints who had been present at the death of Jesus would come, and that she must help them. Sara saw them arrive in a boat. The sea was rough, and the boat threatened to founder. Mary Salome threw her cloak on the waves and, using it as a raft, Sarah floated towards the Saints and helped them reach land by praying. / for more info please follow this link in front you can see Sara la Kali. to the left of her, is the boat carrying the three marys in the storm, approaching the french coast, to the place which later will be called ´Les Saintes Maries de la Mer`. this lies in the Camargue region, represented by the barren tree, and the flamingo flying over Sara. the angel is the symbol of the vision Sara had.

Sant’Agnese in Agone is a church dedicated to St Agnes, built at the site of her martyrdom. / An oratory was built here, probably in the 8th century when it was mentioned in the Itinerary of Einsiedeln, and dedicated to St Agnes. It stood on the spot where she was martyred, over a brothel in the arcades of the Circus of Domitian, also known as the Circus Agonalis. According to an inscription, it was consecrated as a church by Pope Callixtus II on 28 January 1123. This was probably a reconsecration after restoration of rebuilding of the church. The Catalogue of Turin, c. 1320, states that the church had one priest. In July 1517, Pope Leo X made it a cardinalitial titular church, with Sant’Andrea della Valle as the first titular priest. The title was suppressed by Pope Innocent XI in 1654, and moved to Sant’Agnese fuori le Mura. In 1998, it was established as a titular deaconry by Pope John Paul II, with Lorenzo Antonetti as titular deacon. Pope Innocent X ordered it enlarged in 1652. The first project was designed by Girolamo and Carlo Rainaldi, but the pope was not happy with it, and gave the task to Borromini in 1653. Innocent X died in 1655, and work proceeded slowly under his nephew Camillo. Borromini wanted to move on, and Carlo Rainaldi took over. Camillo also died before the church was finished, and his wife decided to call in Bernini. He altered Borromini’s design, leaving the the façade mainly as planned but adding a high pediment surmounted by an attic. The rebuilding was completed in 1672, and the church was consecrated on 17 January of that year.

Part of my 20 images that changed my portfolio set. This is the amazing 1930’s building affectionately termed the ‘square colosseum’ in Rome – Palazzo della Civilta e de Lavoro Designed and built by architect Marcello Piacentini after being commissioned by Benito Mussolini this building was part of the development for the 1942 World Fair, which naturally did not happen due to World War 2. There are six storeys each with nine columns of arches on all faces of the building, making a total of 216. Located in EUR district of the city of Rome (Esposizione Universale Roma) a quiet suburb of the capital. Each Sunday a popular and lively market is held close by selling fresh meats, cheeses and breads alongside Clothing and Crafts Nikon D40X / f7.1 / 100 ISO / 55mm / 1/200sec Please View Large

When traveling, I became really disenchanted with photography. So many photographers all taking the same shots from the same spots. Why even bother trying to come up with something different? By the time we got to Rome, I had started leaving my “good” camera at home, instead taking the point and shoot, which also happens to be an underwater camera. This pretty much saved me from a total creative burn out. There was something about dunking it in the fountains, and taking it out while it was pissing down rain that made me feel free to enjoy the experience. Okay, and I had a smug little moment watching the tourists rush to shelter their SLRs from the weather while I happily plonked my camera into a puddle. hehehe This shot is from our trip to the Trevi Fountain. I thought about straightening it up, but decided I like it crooked. Besides, lots of Italy is a bit crooked (architecturally) Around 3,000 euros are thrown into this fountain each day. That’s a lot of coins!
