Went for a walk in the city centre today!

Wide-angle view of the Colosseum, the ancient Flavian Amphitheatre in Rome, Italy, photographed on 17 October 2026. The monumental travertine façade curves across the frame, revealing three levels of Roman arches and the partially preserved upper wall. Statues stand within several arches, while tourists walk, take photographs and gather in the sunlit square below. Tall cypress trees frame the right side of the amphitheatre beneath a vivid blue sky scattered with white clouds.

I'm happy to come and visit, but it's also good to know it will be for just a few days 😅

I don't miss the Capital of the Empire so much!

Porta San Paolo, the ancient Porta Ostiensis, in Rome, photographed on 13 April 2026. The monumental Roman gate rises between two massive cylindrical brick towers topped with battlements, with the central arched passage opening at street level. Modern Rome flows immediately in front of the ancient structure, with cars, pedestrians, traffic lights and road signs creating a striking contrast between the surviving Roman walls and the contemporary city.

A close-up view of a weathered, tan stone column capital against a clear blue sky. The cylindrical column rises from the bottom of the image into an ornate capital with layered, curved moldings, angular projections, and eroded carved details. The upper section forms a broad, roughly triangular roof-like shape, with chipped edges, pits, cracks, and darker patches from age and weathering.

Way past time to seek A Better Internet, so here we go...

Photo is of the famous Calanais (Callanish) Stones on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland. One of a series of new photos of the stones which tries to convey some of the atmosphere of this amazing, c. 5000 year-old, stone circle/formation, and beloved of the legendary Julian Cope.



Black and White photo of the Calanais (Callanish) Stones on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, taken against a gloomy sky. The photo is deliberately out of focus.
