After an invigorating couple of hours doing my email, I went to the Anglo-American Bookstore in Rome to buy my books. I took my camera along, know that there are always photo opportunities wherever you go. I wasn't disappointed.
On the way there, I put my camera bag in front of me and rested my camera on that, using my thumb to press the shutter release as I walked. With all the noise, it was actually a very effective way of taking picture inconspicuously. Most people never caught on to what I was doing(although a few did as you can see in my photos).
Quite a lot of fun.
After I paid the bookstore inflated prices for 1 of my 3 books, I kept taking pictures, and found my way to the Castle on the north side of the Tiber. The light was magic, just perfect. Really strong evening light for long shadows. There were vendors out, street performers, and a good sized crowd. I was really happy with the results, especially with a few of them.
