Roma The Ultimate Instagram Guide: Framing the Eternal City in Style
Nicholas Angelucci1. The Colosseum
No tour to Rome would ever be complete without a stop at the iconic Colosseum. It is not only an iconic symbol of the city but also one of the fantastic backdrops for your shots on Instagram. One could go in early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid crowds and get great light during the golden hour.
Suggestion: Shooting with angles is a great idea. Shoot the imposing structure from below or click it amidst all the bustles of city life.

2. The Trevi Fountain
Toss a coin over your shoulder into the fountain at what is probably Rome's most photographed landmark: the famous Trevi Fountain. To take a picture with this magnificent baroque masterpiece in the background is supposed to bring good fortune.
Tip: Long exposure will allow the water flowing into the picture to become somewhat dreamy.

3. The Spanish Steps
The Spanish Steps, of course, serve as a rather popular meeting point and an Instagram hot spot. Capture pops of color with flowers and people lounging on the steps signaling the vibrant atmosphere of the city.
Tip: Go early in the morning to catch the beautiful light and avoid crowds that have appeared by midday.

4. Trastevere
Stroll along the charming little streets of Trastevere, lined by riotously multicolored buildings and narrow cobbled lanes, making for a visually terrific snapshot-the whole district is so full of character that candid captures and street photography are good here.
Tip: Go out, explore some local street art, and hidden corners for that added special touch to your feed.

5. St. Peter's Basilica
Saint Peter's Basilica, established in Vatican City, is an essential visit of any visit to Rome. The beauty of the architecture and this great dome need to be captured.
Hint: For panoramic wide landscaped shots, proceed all the way to the top of the dome for fabulous views over the city.

6. The Pantheon
The Pantheon is another must-see architectural gem. Its magnificent dome and stunning interior make for incredible photos. Be sure to capture the oculus, which lets in natural light, creating a heavenly atmosphere inside.
Tip: Use a wide-angle lens to photograph the entire beauty of the structure in a frame.

7. Campo de' Fiori
The Campo de' Fiori is a daytime market, though in the evenings, those bursting squares are just right for lively night-time shots. Colorful stalls and fresh produce promise bright shoots, while the cafes promise good food photography atmospheres.
Shooting candid moments of locals and visitors interact with the vendors will make it more personal.

8. The Borghese Gardens
Stroll in the Borghese Gardens and relax from the city bustle. It's truly a very nice public park, with great landscapes, fountains, and sculptures—just picture-postcard shots in serene nature.
Hint: Rent a bicycle or a rowing-boat to include some fun activities in the photo.

9. Views from Pincio's Terrace at Sunset
Pincio Terrace, for its breathtaking view of sunset over all of Rome, is positioned high above the town and directly faces great photography of a panoramic view of it at the golden hour.
Tip: Head on down early to get a good spot and in time for sunset to enjoy the breathtaking colors light up the city.

10. Gelato Stores
It is said there is no trip to Rome without having gelato; in the city, it can be best shot with shots of sweet cold dessert against historic backdrops or streets framed with flowers.
Tip: Experiment with flavors and colors to shoot creative, vivid, and inspiring shots.
