Rome is one of the most incredible cities I have ever visited. Everywhere you go, remnants of the city’s great history surround you. There is an incredible amount to see, do and learn about in Rome. I spent a week here and still didn’t see all I wanted to see.

I loved taking photographs of Rome. These pictures are from many years ago, in 2006, when I only had a small point and shoot camera. I’d love to go back and photograph Rome now that I have professional photography equipment. Still, I think these photos go to show that you don’t need an expensive camera to capture great pictures!
