Ostia Antica is a large archaeological site 15 miles (25 kilometers) southwest of Rome, at the location of the harbor city of ancient Rome. At the mouth of the River Tiber, Ostia was established between the 7th and 3rd Centuries BCE as Rome's seaport. The site is notable for the excellent preservation of its many ancient buildings, magnificent frescoes and impressive mosaics. Due to silting Ostia fell slowly into decay between 400 and 500 ACE, and was finally abandoned in the 9th century.

'The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.' ~ Marcel Proust, writer, Paris, 1871-1922. My photographs are not merely a record of what was before my camera, but rather my visualization of the place and time as I remember discovering it, be it a particular mood, impression, or ambiance. These images may bring back memories of your own travels or they might inspire, you in some small way to venture off and maybe discover exciting, new landscapes of your own. But in the meantime, consider placing one of these photographs on your wall as a window to foreign lands. A note to those who purchase one of my images, you have my deepest thanks. I am honored that you have chosen one of my photographs...
