Lacking a travel or "holiday snaps" section I figured these might be best placed here. Taken last weekend on a short trip to Rome, these are some shots I captured in and around the Basilica shortly before seeing the Pope.
It quickly became apparent I wouldn't be able to get shots without my fellow tourists (lacking a tripod and neutral density filter), so I thought I would try and incorporate them in the scene. Not sure how well I achieved this, but it was good fun keeping an eye on the people rather than the building and waiting for compositions to come together. I think they help add a sense of scale, so think I will try taking this style further on future expeditions.
All comments and advice welcome. The first is a quick pano, and I'm not overly happy with the sloping right hand side. I can spend more time processing it, but haven't the time at the moment so this was largely an experiment to see how well the new Lightroom functionality worked. If anyone has any tips or making sure I get the shots better aligned in future, please let me know!

Quite pleased with this one. I think the guy taking a photo with his iPad makes it
