great photo of Fontana delle Naiadi. Ilove the contrast between the blue sky and the dark sculptures. Detail is nice as well and the composition of the two is fantastic...

Hi Rafael! How do you spell Najadi in english? I invented najads, because it wasn't in my dictionary. :-). Thank you for the comment, my friend. Greetings. Antonio

As far as I know Antonio it is spelled Naiadi

Also a pleasure for me to comment on such a fantastic photo!

Thank you, Rafael. The calcium in the water of Rome covered these statues with a snakeskin! It is time to clean them: but in the photo I prefer like that. ;-) Cheers. Antonio

To be honest antonio i rather enjoy the snakeskin-like staues becausae it really makes them stand out from the rest that one would normally see!

Like that, Rafael, they seem more artistic and modern. Cheers. Antonio.
