In one more, probably futile, attempt to re-boot a slowly dying interest in my own photography, I have decided to start yet another 365 project (my third): one new photo per day for a whole calendar year.
I think I may already regret it and it's only my first post ;-)
The view from just in front of Chiesa Santissimo Nome di Maria (Church of the Most Holy Name of Mary) was quite magnificent.
The landmarks that can be seen here includes Trajan's Forum (specifically the columns of Basilica Ulpia and the base of Trajan's Column), the Victor Emmanuel II Monument and Chiesa Santa Maria di Loreto (Church of Saint Mary of Loreto).

Le perce-neige, à la floraison précoce, est annonciateur du printemps à venir. Ce magnifique bijou blanc qui fleurit au cœur de l’hiver embellit nos jardins
Bantay Bay panorama taken in vertical segments with a Samsung Note 8 and pieced together in Lightroom and Photoshop. A total of about 15 pictures came together to make this image.
I just had to get down to Plain City pronto when I heard that this old Mail Pouch sign had been exposed.
I can't take credit for this image but I can attest to being the inspiration for the shot ;) My husband took this with his phone Saturday morning and it is probably the best photo that was taken from our trip. I tell ya, phones are taking over!
This is actually the whole museum, not just a sign for it: window boxes at the base hold memorabilia and menus from this iconic franchise.
In 1952, the Parkette bought the Big Boy franchise (hence the name around the base) and subsequently it became Shoney's Big Boy.
To give a little scale to this: the statue at top comes in at 7'8", which is one scary big Big Boy!

La Fontana di Trevi is perhaps the most famous fountain in the world. Almost every visitor to Rome comes here to have a look. The fountain was complete in the 1760s and has appeared in many movies.
The name fountains name comes from ' tre via', for the three roads that meet here. One of the aqueducts that brought water into ancient Rome ended here at the fountain.
The fountains architect, Nicola Salvi, said he intended his design to show the power and life giving nature of water. At the fountain's centre is a majestic sculpture of Oceanus; the titan who presides over the great river encircling the world. Oceanus stands on a chariot pulled by tritons and two winged horses. The varying moods of the sea is reflected in the horses, one is calm/placid while the other is boisterous/violent. The two statues flanking Oceanus represent the gifts of water, Abundance (on the left) and Salubrity (Healthfulness).
The fountain is built against the back of the Palazzo Poli.

This large square in the area of the ancient Campus Martius contains ancient Roman ruins discovered in 1927.
Within the square are the ruins of four temples; they stand in a row (on the right side of the image here). Also within this site are the remains of Pompey's Theatre. In 44 BC, Julius Caesar was killed here by a group of Roman senators.
Just visible on the far right here is Teatro Argentina, an opera house. It is one of Rome's oldest theatres; it opened in 1732.
Today the area is right beside a busy street, Corso Vittorio Emanuele II.

... a view of two of Rome's most famous monuments/landmarks from the current road that is on what was the Via Triumphalis, the Arch of Constantine and the Colosseum.
By tradition, Roman Generals awarded a triumphal procession marched with their soldiers, prisoners and loot from the Campus Martius to the Capitoline Hill.
The Arch of Constantine was built to commemorate Emperor's victory at the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312 AD. The design of many triumphal arches around the world have taken inspiration from its design.
The Colosseum was completed in 80 AD and at nearly 2,000 years old remains one of the world's largest still standing arenas.
