Rome the Beginning

Modern day Italy is filled with Football, Fashion, Beautiful people, brilliant weather and birht place of Pizza. That is a common perception for who have not been to Italy yet. Rome the beautiful capital of a nation once ruled by Julius Ceasar have left an incredible amount of history and culture behind.

Rome is a beautiful city which you would need to spend at least 3-4 days minimum to explore and not more than a week. There are many hot spots like 'Spanish Step ', 'Ruins' and 'Vatican City' which you could easily spend a day there. And some places like 'Trevi Fountain' and 'Piazza Navano' which you would definitely visit at least twice (day and night).

Italy's architecture and vivid colour makes it a photographers heaven to visit. You simply cannot put your camera down if you're in any of their hot spot. Rome is so crowded and picture taking of the crowd can be quite entertaining. You can simply see and meet people from all over the world. Everyone have one attitute in common. Laid-back & Relax!

All my photo are taken by my D40 with kit lens, which is light and easy to travel with. 90% of the picture are taken with auto mode. Only thing i needed to tweak is flash on or off.
Enjoy the pictures!

A Typical Street in Rome. Adventurous colours for a building.

The Colosseum. Its a must to go in. Being inside and outside is simply breadth taking. 

The walk towards the Colosseum is simply remarkable. Most of the time you would stand and look around.
