This will be my fourth trip to Rome and since I like walking around with my camera in hand I have photos of most of the monuments in Rome. As I was walking thru St Peters I notices not much has changed, at least on a large-scale, but it is fascinating to say the least. Glancing at the statues and frescos I occasionally looked at the people observing these works of Art and was curious of their expressions and very animated gestures, so then I looked at the statues again with a different frame of mind, Facial Expressions.
So begins the Faces of Rome.
These ladies were scattered all over Rome, this is the only one I photographed and it so happened to have a face painted on the wall. I thought this was an appropriate first face picture
