There was a lot of street walking during the trip.  One day, I think I logged 7 miles on my iPhone Ap.   The slower pace of walking affords the photographer the opportunity to see things that he might otherwise not see in traveling some other way.  

Bicycles, motor scooters, and motorcycles are very popular in Rome.  The first picture is sort of a "setup" shot.  The Sunflowers had been purchased earlier at the open air market.  The bike was parked out side a shop that restored old furniture, and the person carrying the flowers put them on this bike.  

When I came out of the shop I spotted them  ... 

Walking home (to the hotel) one afternoon, spotted this scene on a little cross "street".  I liked the compostion ...

Walking from somewhere to somewhere.  This building looks a little like the Flat Iron building in NYC.  Click!

There's nothing special about this ... an ordinary street. There are hundreds like this in Rome.  But, there was nice soft light (impossible to resist) and a sky full of clouds ... 

This is the equivalent of our Supreme Court.

Horse statues on buildings are big ... this is a closeup atop the building above:

I stared at this light every time I went into the hallway in our hotel.  It finally got the better of me.  :)

A great old looking building.  Perhaps being renovated?  I wasn't sure.

Old Roman stuff is everywhere.  This was opposite the National Monument. 

This one isn't working but do you know what it is?  

It is a Water Faucet!  They are all over Rome and spout water continuously. If you put your finger over the end of the spout, the water gets diverted to a little hole in the spout's top making it much easier to drink from.  Here's an operating fountain:

The colors on this wall got to me.  Oh yeah ... Click goes the shutter!

This last image is a building newly restored Something made me take a picture of it. When I got home, I realized what it was.  Can you see it?

The windows on each floor of the building have different exterior "dressing!"  After seeing this, I went back and looked at other building I had shot. Apparently this must have been the style at one time as I spotted a number buildings with different exterior windows on each floor.

Who needs museums to visit when you have streets like this?   :-)  

Bye for now; See you in a few days!
