05-10-04 Nel Foro a Notte (In the Forum at Night)

Janelle Kelpe and I set out on the town with a tripod and a few cameras – my digital Fuji and her film Olympus. I took 58 shots over about three hours (from 10pm to 1am). These two are probably the best, at least of the horizontal shots.

With the aid of a tripod, I’m able to set my ISO sensitivity to a nice, low 160, which helps reduce the grain of an image (unfortunately, web images more than make up for it).

Nonetheless, we were able to visit a number of famous sites in order to get the standard “Postcard” shots – Spanish Steps (currently clad in a most un-picturesque scaffolding), Piazza Barberini, Trevi Fountain, the Vittoriano, the Pantheon, the Imperial Forum, and the Colosseum.
