Roman Colour and Texture

Walking in Rome Bill and I are always struck by the colours

 chalky and intense.

 I find myself framing

details

as if I'm looking at paintings.

One morning we were walking between the Pantheon and the Piazza Navona

I looked up and there were the three colours of Rome -- pink, yellow and peach. 

 I never get tired of these colours.

 And I never get tired of the masonry 

that frames them.

 This is a pile of wood in a carpenter's shop. Look at the delicate plaster (stone?) frame of the door!

 Around every corner

 there is a fresh wonder

 unexpected

 gorgeous.

Those Roman colours again -- peach and pinky ochers.

And around another corner, the Goddess Juno keeps an eye on tourist and native alike.
