The photo is spectacular but I prefer the first version, much more subtle. When we see again the second version, we have the impression to be in a carnival.
It was maybe the intention.

Amazing... I'm visiting Rome again in 3 weeks... it's our 10th anniversary from the first time we fell in love with the eternal city. We return each year, ever enamored.... only missing a few times due to other trips or political issues abroad and at home. I can't wait to return! Your image is such an amazing capture of the essence of Rome at dusk!

Paradisi’s Roma

Roma conjures
celestial dreams
of eternal bliss.

In il vaticano

azure bosom of basilic di san pietro,
its sacrosant heart beats
with pious regard for berthing souls.

That anchor roots in Roma.

Gentle repose in the
resplendent arms
of devoted saints.
