Photo Friday: The Colosseum

The Colosseum & the Arch of Constantine.  Photo by Susan Sanders

It’s been unseasonably cold here in Rome with temperatures dropping below freezing at night and a brisk and frigid wind blowing off the Apennine Mountains.  Such conditions–while sometimes a bit hard to endure in apartments built more to protect inhabitants from summer’s hot sun than to insulate them from winter’s cold–make for drop dead gorgeous days in the Eternal City.

The wind clears the air and the sky takes on a stunning shade of azure.   The crisp, clear light remains even as the sun goes down, as seen above in a photo of the Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine taken by Susan Sanders this Sunday.
