![Gold Star Critiquer/Gold Star Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 435 W: 90 N: 567]](http://i1.treklens.com/misc/g-g-g.gif) (2560) | hello dear TL'ers :-) i hope you all had a lovely holiday period (and are recovering from eating too much as most of us do ihih)
well i had the great pleasure of spending the New Years weekend in my beloved Roma thanks to my dear friend Marco (marcocig) who invited me to ring in the new year with him and his friends.. a really lovely time with lovely people in a city that just takes your breath away... which leads me to my rather a-typical 'postcard' from the eternal city.. it makes me laugh a bit that for the second time i went to Rome since moving to Italy (and remembering that on my 2 previous visits in 2001 i didn't have a camera...) and especially considering that this time i was in such beautiful parts of the city and yet the only photos i managed to take were in the waiting room of the train station! what a silly girl.. in my defense the rain made it pretty impossible most of the time and i was worried about damaging the camera! but all the more reason to go back soon ^_^
so here it is! my beautiful Roman vista ihih - this is the ceiling of the waiting room at Termini station in Rome while i was waiting with Marco for my train back to Umbria.. i really liked the geometry and grey tones and how the lights were reflected in the glass window at the back of the room so snapped a couple of shots of it.. this is full frame with nothing done in PP other than b&w convertion and a bit of contrast boost & usm, i particularly like how all the tiny holes in the ceiling grates make strange swirling patterns when seen in a photograph that the naked eye doesnt really catch :-)
hope you like it and hugs to all,
Ayda
p.s. just for fun i've posted as a workshop one of the other shots at took in the waiting room.. it's always an interesting place for people watching ^_^ |
