Ciao Goncalo,
very nice image of one of the most important monuments we have in Italy. Very nice note too, I have appreciated it.
The broader view in your photo gives an idea of what Colosseo was in the past! There's a good light too in the shot. Well done.
Wow great POV.

Olá Gonçalo,
Este é um magnífico panorama do Coliseu.
Só é pena a imagem não ser ainda maior, para se ver melhor.
Um abraço,
