July 20 - Italian Pride


I'm not the biggest fan of soccer and I could care less in a match between France and Italy, but I love the atmosphere of a big game. I was traveling through Europe during the World Cup that was taking place in Germany. I landed in Rome on the day before the World Cup Final between France and Italy. How could you miss a party like that? So we headed down to Circus Maximus, a big field where they had big screen TVs and joined the party.

I love this shot because it not only shows the enthusiasm of the crowd without really showing the crowd, it has color and history all in one. How could you not be excited imagining yourself in the middle of this crowd, loving their team and country.
