The Piazza della Rotonda is a city square in the heart of Rome where the ancient Pantheon majestically stands. The square features a central fountain surrounded by shops and restaurants where one can leisurely sit, eat and people watch. When in Rome, I always stay in this neighborhood at a hotel just right behind the Pantheon because every major landmark is just a few minutes away by foot. Walking around this neighborhood can be quite an experience…one gets magically transported to a different era while walking on cobblestone streets, through narrow alleyways and along historic buildings. I also personally enjoy walking around this plaza at night, which can be quite romantic with the golden lights illuminating the entire plaza just like in the photo above, which I took on my way back to the hotel after a hearty Italian dinner. So when in Rome, I never pass up the chance to enjoy a night in this beautiful piazza.
Phenomenal capture! I just love the tone and overall feel. Italy has been on my bucket list for some time. I will get there eventually! Cheers!

Beautiful photo. I like seeing night-lit scenes as I still haven’t got the hang of doing them properly myself.

Thanks to the internet I learned techniques on how to photograph night scenes. Although, to this day, I still need to take multiple shots to come up with a decent photo. LOL! Thanks for dropping by and hope you visit again.

Very nice photo. There is something about the lighting at night that makes for great shots in cities.

The lights do create dramatic effects on photographs. Can be quite challenging though if taken without a tripod or a stable base, which I did in this photo. Thank you for dropping by and I hope you visit again.
