We had the good fortune to wake up to this view every morning during our stay in Rome. In the foreground is the old city wall and the white structure to the right of the intersection is the entrance to the Villa Borghese Gardens and Museum.

The day we were at the Colosseum there were thousands of visitors even on a Wed in March. I was naively thinking there wouldn’t be many people and I would be able to get some shots without anyone in them. No way but there was a mound of rubble which I used in this photo. Just below the rubble were those thousands of people.
