Excellent use of the C-Lux, at "28" no doubt. I like the foreground framing, overall detail and depth. Perhaps it needs just a touch of increased color saturation. This might also be interesting in B&W.

Thanks for the comments guys.

 

I think you're right Gordon, I hadn't seen it until you mentioned it, but there is a bit of a blue cast to the shot which makes it look somewhat colder than it actually was on that morning.

The recess just above where the cross is, is where the Emporer and his chums used to sit to watch the games.

 

I think that this could be read as the triumph of Christianity overcoming the barbarity of the Roman Empire prior to its own conversion. Your interpretation may vary, as they say ;)

 

The Colosseum really is a most impressive building regardless of its age. I can't wait to go back and have another visit.

 

Thanks for sharing this John.
