Infinity by EliaLocardi



Inside the Vatican Museum in Rome, you'll find the Bramante Staircase. Designed as a double helix by Giuseppe Momo in 1932, it has become one of the most recognizable and photographed spiral staircases in the world.

Intrepid by fatihmsahbaz



You can see my time lapse work from Arctic Norway including such scenes as this at: http://ift.tt/1GdKm6i or click here. Also, I started a Facebook Page so if you wanna follow me there, click here and click like.. This shot belongs to my trip to Austria/Germany/Italy. The place is called Seceda peak, at Odle mountain ranges of Val di Gardena, in South Tyrol or Italy. I have used my Nikkor 14-24 2.8G 78 seconds and a large aperture to get the result. What made this mysterious look is the rapidly changing sky and long exposure. I have also shot a time lapse and also looking forward to post it soon. Please share your thoughts and vote if you like. via 500px http://ift.tt/1wCY8jW

Ancient wet streets by f-alamia



Secondo Tucidide Erice (Eryx, Έρυξ in greco antico) fu fondata dagli esuli troiani, che fuggendo nel Mar Mediterraneo avrebbero trovato il posto ideale per insediarvisi; sempre secondo Tucidide, i Troiani unitisi alla popolazione autoctona avrebbero poi dato vita al popolo degli Elimi. Fu contesa dai Siracusani e Cartaginesi sino alla conquista da parte dei Romani nel 244 a.C. Virgilio la cita nell'Eneide, con Enea che la tocca due volte: la prima per la morte del padre Anchise, un anno dopo per i giochi in suo onore. Virgilio nel canto V racconta che in un'epoca ancora più remota vi campeggia Ercole stesso nella famosa lotta col gigante Erix o Eryx, precisamente nel luogo dove poi si sfidarono al cesto il giovane e presuntuoso Darete e l'anziano Entello. In antico, insieme a Segesta, che parrebbe di fondazione coeva, era la città più importante degli Elimi, in particolare era il centro in cui si celebravano i riti religiosi. Durante la prima guerra punica, il generale cartaginese Amilcare Barca ne dispose la fortificazione, e di qui difese Lilibeo. In seguito trasferì parte degli ericini per la fondazione di Drepanon, l'odierna Trapani. I Romani vi veneravano la "Venere Erycina", la prima dea della mitologia romana a somiglianza della greca Afrodite, ma Diodoro Siculo narra l'arrivo di Liparo, figlio di Ausonio, alle Isole Eolie (V, 6,7), aggiungendo che i Sicani «abitavano le alte vette dei monti e adoravano Venere Ericina». Scarse, o quasi nulle, sono le notizie della città e del santuario nel periodo bizantino, restando comunque economicamente attiva. Description: http://ift.tt/12NlUMa via 500px http://ift.tt/12NlW6K

Eternity by EliaLocardi



For the entire month of December, I’ll be taking over as an Editor on 500px! :D While I can, I’ll do my best to add as many beautiful photos to the Editors Choice section as possible. If you have any personal favorites — photos or photographers that you think deserve to be in the spotlight — paste a link in the comments below and I’ll check them out. And yes, to answer your first question, you can link to your own photos as well. ;) —--------------------- About This Photo —--------------------- Sometimes there are moments so beautiful that it would simply be impossible to express them with words. It’s at these times when photography can empower us to capture these moments and transform them into something more tangible - a single image that embodies the soul of our experience. Though we had exceptional weather throughout our entire Italy Photo Tour in May, this was by far my favorite sunset of the trip, and quite possibly one of the most spectacular sunsets I’ve ever seen in Rome. The colors seemed to last forever as the slow moving clouds twisted and transformed into interesting shapes. Let’s hope that the weather gods are on our side for our next Italy Photo Tour as well. :) http://bit.ly/italy-phototour If you're interested in my work, feel free to drop me a line on Instagram or my website EliaLocardi.com. via 500px http://ift.tt/1wjswyW
