A couple of random photos from around the city.. I had to use them in a project
all of the ornamentation is painted on in this church



not the best photo, but I liked the colors that came from it


A couple of pictures from my History and Theory of Architecture class.





Hey, just wanted to give you guys a heads up: in two weeks I will be traveling around southern Italy for a week with the architecture kids (you can see where I am going on the schedule I've attached).  The weekend after that I have a plane ticket to Bordeaux, France to visit the french riviera... and the weekend after that I have a plane ticket to Barcelona to visit the other group of CUArch students in Europe.  It looks like, for now, my trip to Sweden and Finland for spring break will be too expensive, so the trip now lined up is Croatia (probably in the little town Baska Voda) and Prague with two of my friends.

I'm a little behind on posting pictures; I have some good pictures from inside the colosseum and forum, a project I did for my field studies class, and of coarse Assisi that I will put up this week.  For now: We were given a tour of the Seven Hills of Rome from our professor, these pictures come from the tour.
