Roman Roamin' III

Ruins of a podium temple in Hadrian's Forum















And rising among the columns, the greatest of
them all, Hadrian's Column, chronicling his
reign and conquests





















Closer up for a smidgeon of detail















Moving right along, across the Piazza Venezia and up the
stairs of the Capitoline to the Piazza del Campidoglio; we'll
return in a week or so for the Capitoline Museum
















Looking from the Campidoglio into the Foro Romano















Theatre of Marcellus, an example of building right over the
ruins














And just down the road, another Ionic/Corinthian/Baroque
Temple/Church, St. Nicholas in Prison















Interior



















Campo di Fiore by day















And the Trevi Fountain















Closer-up















And the Spanish Steps, now in bloom
