Rome

View from the Capitoline Hill



Rome's mascot, the She-wolf, mothering Romulus and Remus (the founders of Rome).
On the way to the Forum from the Capitoline Hill.

These three trees have been maintained in the center of the Forum since the time of the Republic.
There are olive (oil), grape (wine), and fig (fruit) trees which they considered to bear the necessities of life.

In the Forum

View from a balcony inside of the Vatican Museum

A sacrifice to Dionysus in the Vatican sculpture garden.

Anyone recognize this little beauty?

I just thought she had the best face...

She is pretty gorgeous too!


At the top of the Spanish steps.

A man unknowingly bathing in a fountain full of pigeon poop at the Villa Borghese...
that's what he gets for sticking his fat head into my shot.


The side of the Colosseum.
Behind me is where the gladiators would train.

The Colosseum (as if you needed me to label it...)

Outside of the Arch of Constantine (? I think that's the right one)

Sitting in a really cool installation at the MAXI (Contemporary Museum) in Rome.
