It’s been a week, and I’ve been sitting on about 70 gigs of photography from Italy – yesterday morning I finally made some headway.
I’ve been to Italy before and it’s always a new adventure – being immersed in so much history, art, and the best food on the planet. Seriously, all I do in Italy is take pictures and eat. I also got to spend some time with a dear friend of 15 years (and be her couch-girl!) who, as it happens, is also a photographer who loves to eat. Was there ever a better combo?
I present to you a random selection of beautiful Roma, shot with my 5D Mark III. I used three lenses on the trip – a 50mm f1.4, a 100mm f2.8 and a 28mm f1.8. Here are some of my faves – shots from the Amalfi Coast and ‘minnow jr.’ coming next!
Trevi Fountain – if you can manage the crowds it’s always worth a look!
Another angle showing the sea of people.
A charming sculpture in every square, a city of hidden gems.
Gazing up a narrow street from the Spanish Steps to St. Peters Basilica
A million and one tiny, amazing restaurants everywhere you go.
The senate – all lit up at night.
2000 years old meets a modern road – what a dramatic landscape.
So much history, you’d need weeks and a guide to really appreciate it all.
One of my favourite things about Rome involves wandering down random small streets…
The Big Stopper and someone selling roasted figs on the street.
