I could only think of loss and death for this week’s theme… At least it gives me an opportunity to pay homage to the victims of 9/11 once again.
For other entries on this week’s photo challenge, go here.
The Roman Forum
The Roman Forum was for centuries the center of Roman public life, the site of triumphal processions and elections; the venue for public speeches, criminal trials, and gladiatorial matches; and the nucleus of commercial affairs. (Wikipedia)
The Roman Colosseum.
“It is the most beautiful of ruins; there breathes all the majesty of ancient Rome. Memories of Titus Livius filled my soul; I saw before Fabius Maximus, Publicola, Menenius Agrippa.” (Promenades dans Rome, Stendhal)
Aisle’s Travel Theme this week is Above.

These two little jewels are the most touristy of all the towns in the Amalfi Coast. We were there at the end of September, which was still high season along that region. The people are super friendly, speak various languages and, understandably, they seem to appreciate tourists. After all, tourism is their sole source of income.
Amalfi. Its main attraction is the Saint Andrew’s Cathedral (Duomo) overlooking the Piazza Duomo, at the heart of Amalfi. Walking around its narrow streets or just people watching is a lot of fun.
Positano. This tiny and picturesque village is a real delight, with lots of nice boutiques, galleries, restaurants and a nice beach.
In response to this week’s Photo Challenge, Fray, here’s something from the California ranches of the Ojai Valley.
This week, Ailsa, at Where’s My Backpack, invites us to share Endearing photos. I found the ones below pretty endearing.
This week’s photo challenge asks us to share our take on zigging and zagging. Here’s mine.
“For this week’s challenge, we want you to become a documentary photographer and attempt to capture a candid moment of a person, place, or thing. Put your National Geographic hat on and tell a story by documenting a moment in time through a single image.”
Well, “candids” are my middle name, and I see a story or a special moment in each one of these shots. It’s up to the viewer to decide whether I’m right or wrong… 🙂
It was just a matter of seconds before he realized that was not a living feline…
Elderly couple watching the sunset in Santa Monica.
Success on her first surf! Brother approves.
Perfect landing!

Jy is wat jy dink - nie wat jy dink jy is nie. Dit help soms om hardop te lag vir wat jy dink of dink jy is.
