This Roman vignette offers a glimpse of colors and textures typically seen in beautiful Italy. I am suddenly craving a large plate of lasagna and a glass of wine!
Bella Italia!

    That stone frame of the door is typical for Northern Italy! Nice photo, Doug.

    I like this tightly cropped shot fot the different shapes and the contrast between the tightly constructed stone work and the wild and free greenery.

    Great geometrics and a perfect dash of organic matter to counter the lifeless stone and wood.
