This week Friday’s theme is “Overcast”. Here’s a repost of a panorama of the Arno.

Shots of Graffiti…I deviated on these images, as I usually don’t do much post processing when shooting street photography. I tried to enhance the grittiness of these images to make them feel more dirty…

Here’s some Latin text on the Santa Maria in Cosmedin, Rome, Italy. This church houses the famous “Mouth of Truth” as seen in the film Roman Holiday….While waiting to stick my hand in it’s mouth, I read some of the Latin inscriptions. In fact Rome and Italy were full of ancient Latin and ancient Greek inscriptions, and even some ancient Hebrew. I had a field day reading all three. Thank you Mrs. Sullivan, Dr. Mosley, and Dr. Warren…All those dead languages helped me be a better tourist!
