I love Rome. Probably my favourite city. It's relatively compact so a reasonably fit person can walk to most things of interest.

I found St Peter's Basilica quite awesome, the Colosseum fascinating, but for some reason the building I was most taken with was the Parthenon.

It's illuminated on the inside by The Occulus, a massive hole in the roof :-

No, not the Parthenon, the Pantheon.

This is the only structure built in the time of the Roman Empire that remains intact and in fact dates to when dates were still in 'BC'.

For many centuries the world's largest unsupported dome, built out of layers of concrete, which are best appreciated from the outside:



Since AD609 the Pantheon has been used as a Christian Church, Santa Maria dei Martiri (St Mary and the Martyrs).

One day I hope to go.

damn cant seem to enlarge a particular photo!

Me too Scotty. Nice Mallard

Keeping to your water theme......Simple and with fantastic light conditions - Somewhere on the coast near Bodega Bay. You'd have to ask Chris Morton exactly where - Just a stunning coastline:

Kind regards,

Peter

It's a truly amazing building.

Maybe a good venue for the next Southern Europe Forum Meeting?

Kind regards,

No the forum is in ruins!

Taken from Derwent Water yesterday with my (T)rusty old Canon IXUS 500. Will be purchasing my first digital SLR soon so quality may improve. The Mountain looks like it has been sprinkled with Icing Sugar.

I have one other photograph from yesterday but is above limit on attachments to post. Much nicer than one above but can't work out how to reduce file size if indeed you can. Sorry.

Download a program called Irfanview free and is widely regarded. On on PC not sure if you are on the other side and whether there is a MAC version. Website does not say.

'Imagewell' does the job simply on a mac.

save your picture, then right click the file and select open with...irfanview, it should be in the list of options.When the picture opens select image, then resize/resample.Then select your size I usually use 800x600 for posting hear.
Have fun.
