Reymon de Real PhotographyALTARE DELLA PATRIA
The Altare Della Patria (Altar of the Fatherland) is a monument in the heart of Rome, Italy built in honor of Victor Emmanuel, the first king of a unified Italy. This monument is more commonly known as Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele II (National Monument to Victor Emmanuel II). I took this photo on my way back to my hotel after an interesting and informative guided tour of the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. This was taken just a few minutes after the sunset while the sky was turning dark blue with a purple tinge on it. Most photos of this monument are taken straight on and I made the same mistake of using a similar technique. Fortunately, I also took some angled shots and this one turned out to be my most decent one. 😁

Wonderful! I simply love Rome… My favorite view on the Altare della Patria is actually from Via del Corso – Pzza. Venezia – angle with Via del Plebiscito… I like this photo very much, particularly the perspective, the angles and the sunset… Contrary to most of the photos taken in the sunset, this one does not look kitschy, on the contrary, the emphasis is on the gorgeous, monumental edifice dominating the square.

Yes! Rome is amazing, there’s a sign, which says: “Solo Roma e degna di Parigi e solo Parigi e degna di Roma”, speaking of the relationship between the twin-cities.
