Interesting colours and textured detail on stonework. So good to see this view as a section of this well known landmark. Nicely executed with blue addition forcing through sky to background. Very pleasant and good luck in comp

    Thanks so much Dave for your great review and comments. I am glad that you appreciate the angle of the shot which was different than everyone else that were taking pictures at the time ~ Steve

I bet steve you would be hard pushed to get a better shot of this place,apart from the post work,the angle is perfect and getting just part of this building works much better than the whole thing,well done for this...brian

Cool night time photo of the Colosseum. I like your historical synopsis of it in your description. I like the angle at which you photographed it too, looking upward. It makes is look more epic. The dark sky over it and the lights coming from inside make it look somewhat formidable.

Steve, this is a perfect shot!

Your artistic creativity shines in this wonderful work of art.

Colors are super with vibrant undertones that reel me in to look even deeper.

Great job my friend.

yeah in a previous life i was the gladiator whooping a lions butt..when the crowd was roaring they couldnt hear me saying.."here kitty kitty..wanna a treat?" lolol. very cool and colorful capture. the upward viewer of the coliseum and skyview is great. love the touch of blue in the sky view. the clarity is great. the capture of the light is great. the image is balanced and very eye appealing to the viewer. great eye and awesome work overall.(clapping)

Wow! This night scene of the Coliseum is magnificent! I love the angle of your shot showing the beautiful architecture of this amphitheater. The night shot showing off so well the blue light shinning through the arches and the intricate details. Nice use of light and shadows and depth. One of my favorite photos of the Coliseum nice work here. Thanks for sharing these wonderful scenes! Good contender for the contest you have my vote!

WOW as always you created some mystic with your buildings or landscapes - excellent composition, I love the strong blue color and the blue planet you added - your picture is taken from a fantastic angle and perspective, clear and sharp in very details, perfect night camera settings - excellent contrast and lighting, #a very attractive picture, worth to hang on a wall in Rom and for Rom lovers for sure
