And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

This picture taken by Astrophysicist Gianluca Masi shows the ISS passing directly over Rome's Colosseum - Too Cool!
Could be a long exposure with a fisheye lens, or some type of composite using Photoshop. Either way, nicely done. I expect that the ISS transit time over the Colosseum is only a few seconds, not enough time to get trails on the stars.

ReplyDeleteGo out to see the ISS often, pick date with high trajectory and clear pre-dawn or just after sunset

Neat picture, the station traverses the sky line in a few minutes
