I'm an amateur for sure but I have to make a comment as I hope others comment on my photos as well. The lighting really takes away from the photo. Neat subject but a better time of day for the photo would have really done better.

The lighting does hurt this photo. There are several options available for shooting in lighting conditions such as this: 1) Bracket shots in 1/2 increments 1 full stop over and under proper exposure 2) Use a graduated ND filter and angle it appropriately 3) Capture the image in different lighting conditions. Cheers, Glenn

Thank you both. And you're right. The lighting is not very good. It was taken in a rush as we were being herded thru the sites in Rome, which is sad. We only had one day, but there was just something so dramatic about it to me that I had to have the shot. Also, the scanned image is quite a bit darker than the actual photo, sadly. I think that for me, it was an inspiring shot because of the history and the feeling of the past that was on everything around us. Michelle

I forgot to mention that I took this picture with one of those little Kodak Advantex point and shoot jobs. I thought for that little camera it did well.

Yes, you are right. Quick shots on small throw-away cameras, or even point and shoots can be difficult under tough conditions. Cheers, Glenn
