My Own- Outside the Roman Forum

This is one of my favorite pictures I think I've ever taken.  It happened completely accidentally one night when I had first gotten to Rome.   In the background are ancient ruins lit up.  In the middleground are two people, one moving and one stationary.  In the foreground, you see the light captured from the cars rushing by.  It captures Rome really well I think. As everyone rushes by in the present day, we still have a reminder of who created this city for us hundreds of years ago.  This picture captures the evolution of the city and technology over the centuries. I've noticed that slowing down is the best way to appreciate the city.
