iPhone Photo of the Week: Ghost Town
Today the city was a bit of a ghost town because it was the feast of the patrons saints of the city, San Pietro and San Paolo. Bars, groceries stores, shops, everything was all closed while people took a holiday. Yesterday there were fireworks at Castel Sant’Angelo and today there was a concert in Piazza Campidoglio, but the streets were rather empty, as many get the Monday off as well and spend the weekend away.
Love it. What a great contrast of light and shadow.
