Red Dwarf



















Doing what I enjoy the most abstracting the crap out of architecture. In this case the Colosseum. One of my mentors in photography told me once I needed to stop photographing older buildings and focus on more modern stuff. They had a fair point and really didn't go back as a result  but when in Rome went back to my roots. 

Walked all around the Colosseum and found these gems on the backside.

Gives off a real surface of Mars vibe.  

Think the sequence here works well with the intro and outro images kind of completing a circle metaphorically and physically. Might work well as a 3 x 3 square with the first and last in the corners.

Would have been interesting to see what I could have done had I had full access to the inside rather than just walking around the outside. 

Circumnavigation





















































Frankly, it was probably quicker walking around the entire wall of Vatican City than it would have been to wait in the line to checkout the Sistine Chapel thus the genesis of this series. Pretty simple premise walk around the outside of Vatican City and see if I couldn't find something worth capturing. Don't think about it too hard. 

Note a few of the images are B Roll as went back the next day to a few places I didn't capture the day before.
