Off The Beaten Path: Street Buskers
  • Tip Rating:
  • Most people just rush right past street musicians but I always try to stop and listen to a song.

    Rome has some really good performers who are out there playing for pennies.

    Off The Beaten Path: Communist Party Propaganda
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Even though the communist ideology is dead in Russia and other former "socialist" states, it is alive in Italy. Italy was home of the Red Brigades after all.

    This poster was in place just before the Iraq invasion in 2003. Peacenik apparatchniks were all over the place and every sideline or splinter party out there was trying to make hay of the whole war question.

    Off The Beaten Path: Late afternoon sun
  • Tip Rating:
  • I love the way the sunlight makes the colors jump out at you. I took this photo late in the aftrenoon and the colors were on fire.

     Great idea to rent the apartment and shop in the local stores. You really get the feel of the city that way. Smart move. I totally agree with you about that wonderful late day light..awesome.
