Ben fatto, Darren. Is that all?note, are you saying you CAN"T now take pics inside the Sistine Chapel? I took heaps. The only restriction being not to use flash.
Am.
CC, Image editing OK.

Grazia !!
nope ..... ALL photography strictly forbidden. That, along with Academia (the home of Michelangelos "David") in Firenze, were the only two places that were that strict. Everywhere else was only NO FLASH rules.

Well, you both look like you had a fantastic time, some wonderful captures and memories in these and congratulations.

haha .. just realised, the fifth shot from the bottom ..... can you tell poor little lightweight Bella has had a few Grappas and Limoncellos ??
Beautiful Italy - just love the place. My wife threw 3 coins into Trevi Fountain in 1996 and we were there again on 2010. Lovely. I really like viewing those captures. Yes, I am sure I have a few photos of the Sistine Chapel back in 1996. We didn't visit it this time around.

I say 'Keep em coming'... Can you ever really get sick of Italy?
Beautiful pics.

still got Firenze and Venezia to show you
Nice series, mate - definately bringing back memories. Got anymore from Napoli? I found it such a colourful and chaotic place - bit of a contrast to the northern cities.
G'day Darren
Well done mate - a very wide range of subjects (last lot esp) and treatments
That w/a lens is getting lots of use too - well done
as to your orig comment "and of course a few of my beautiful wife and my ugly mug" ... I would say that your beautiful wife has great taste in choosing a good-lookin bloke

Cheers Phil. The WA shots are from the little NEX. I didnt have an UWA for the big FF camera with me on this trip. The little NEX goes alright.
Really enjoying the trip Daz, thanks for continuing the journey
Cheers David.

Firstly Congratulations.
Thanks for tripping me back to Italy, yumm to the ice creams and the chestnuts roasting on the street. I really like your sepia shots and the processing you have done on many of these images. Really enjoyed watching. thanks.
and i hope whatever wishes you made tossing those coins in come true..........
CC is welcomed & appreciated

Thankyou .... it was a great trip. Europe is certainly a wonderous place to visit
Next stop ....... Brazil (hopefully)
Would be nice if you numbered the images, to make it easier to provide specific comments...I particularly liked the quality and post-processing of the earlier images (e.g. colosseum) and the two night time shots - wine sipping and the street scene. It's often difficult to make buildings look interesting (unless the audience has a particular interest in architecture), but these were all very attractive - great combination of composition and processing.
Some very beautiful shots. Makes me want to pack up and head over there right now.
