That's My World Tuesday


Well, it was my world for a few days this month.  
This is Bernini's famous 1651 fountain of the 
Quattro Fiume, in Rome's Piazza Navona—with 
representations of a river for each of the continents
 known at the time.  This one is the Danube.

  2. Three Coins in the Fountain, right? I saw that movie when I was a kid, and hummed/sang the song for ages. Beautiful fountain and water.....

  4. I was in the exact same location recently. I found taking pictures of the fountain with the crowds very challenging! You did a fabulous job not only with the clarity but capturing the true bright colours I remember. Thanks for sharing this part of your journey. :)
