I stumbled upon the Ninfeo di Alessandro Severo during a Rome wander, completely by accident. The sheer scale of the thing was breathtaking – I'd seen pictures, sure, but nothing prepared me for the… more

Honestly? Nothing concrete comes to mind beyond the usual Roman ghost stories – you know, the type where every old ruin is supposedly haunted by the spirits of those who built it or met their end there. People say things, but it's mostly atmospheric. The Severo's Secrets vibe is more about the feeling of the place than specific legends. It’s just… powerfully evocative. The kind of spot that makes you want to invent your own stories, honestly.

Yeah, I get that. It’s weird, isn't it? I was expecting some, I don't know, actual secrets. Like hidden passages or a lost treasure or something. Instead, it's all… vibes.

The power of suggestion, or something. lol.

Early morning, before the midday sun really blasts it, is your best bet. The light's softer then, and you'll get less harsh shadows inside. Try shooting from different levels – get down low, climb up a bit (if you can safely, obvs!), to get varied perspectives. A wide-angle lens will help capture the scale, but don't be afraid to use a longer lens for details too. And honestly? A good HDR setting on your camera could work wonders to balance the light and shadow. Think about using a tripod for sharper shots, especially in low light. Good luck! Hope your photos are amazeballs.
