The Coliseum is a monster-sized sight to see, physically and emotionally. Its size and its simple but effective organization, clearly visible in more than LVI gates (56, for those uncertain about Roman numbers) which could empty the giant arena in a matter of minutes. Its underpinnings, now open to the daylight, showing the holding pens and hallways under the turf. And of course its history. On a steamy summer day, the Coliseum is truly a monster-sized sight to see.

Feel free to let me know what you think. It is exciting to think that some of my photography might be enjoyed by others.
