Textures and Faces

The faces of Rome. You want to get close enough to touch them, but are never allowed. You always want those close ups that show the expressions and emotions. I tried to give a few glimpses of the different Faces of Rome.
Textures. The patterns and colors that most people pass by everyday with out even noticing. Yet when you stop and look, the most beautiful images can come to the front.
What you would not normally see just walking the streets.
