Rome, Italy - May 28, 2011

This is a picture of what is across the street from the Colosseum. When I developed this roll of film I found it curious that this image was sandwiched between two negatives of the Colosseum. Let's see, the Colosseum is a 2000+ year old structure, I can't fathom what used to be across the street that long ago...but in modern times, it's a hot dog stand (click picture to view larger image, food stand on top of hill, in the centre). That's the reason I took this picture - I saw this juxtaposition of modern vs. antiquity.  But, come to think of it, there must have been food stands that long ago too right?  Maybe just not for hot dogs in particular.
