Pantheon, its square, its fountain, its lights, its stones...Feeling sad these days, sometimes it's quite relieving to just go out and take pictures....even being aware that they are the mirror of what's hidden inside oneself.....

Autumn harvest colours
Campo dei Fiori market in a beautiful october sunny day!
Delicious pomegranate juice....
Pumpkins, pomegranates, chestnuts......orange, yellow, red, brown....
"True colours" would Cindy Lauper sing!
Giant pumpkin and friends!
My birthday falls in October...this must be the reason why I am so fond of these beautiful fruits...and wine... of course!!!!
The seller's byke
Peperoncini......una delizia!!!! non solo per gli occhi!!
Ahmed....selling a special multi-purpose tool explaining its use in a very funny and picturesque way, with a perfect roman accent...! He's on You Tube, you can watch him at work, right below this picture...Enjoy!
And here he is, in a nice video I found on You Tube!
And...one more, in italian, shot by some tourists!
Sometimes he says his name is Mustafà...but today he told me his name is Ahmed!! He is a very nice guy, everybody knows him at the main roman markets! He's being doing this job for a few years now...and he loves Rome...doesn't miss his country of origin at all!!
People come here on purpose to take pictures...

50 shades of .....Rome colours...!
Emerald green for Piazza della Rotonda fountain, in front of the Pantheon
Pastel colours for the roofs in this narrow street near Via del Governo Vecchio
The magic of light through this multicolor round stained glass window in Santa Maria sopra Minerva, representing Mary and all the Saints around her
Warm red votive candles in Trinità dei Monti Church
Traditional red and blue horse drawn carriages
Light orange light when looking through the entrance to a courtyard
Ocra and orange of the buildings in Via Margutta
Gnocchetti alla Sorrentina with red tomato, white mozzarella and parmigiano, and green basil leaves....and a glass of fresh white wine!! Sounds like the italian flag colours...! By the way...this is the roman restaurant called "La Rampa" in Piazza Mignanelli....My aunt Elizabeth, american, she comes all the way from New York to Rome every year, in autumn, just to wish me happy birthday inviting me out for lunch at La Rampa!! It has become a sort of tradition....!
Colourful spices and pasta seasonings at Campo dei Fiori market, every day
Blue...of a beautiful autumn sky
A little bit of everything!!
