"Colosseum"
It took some luck and stubbornness for this image to be taken. I knew the Colosseum closed at 1900, and sunset was at 1915. Close enough. What I didn't know was that the gates close at 1800, so I sprinted to the entrance as the guards were locking up. Fortunately they allowed me in and I waited for the crowds to disperse. This image was taken just before 1900, as the guards were to about to escort me out after sounding the third warning, and as a storm front passed through.
