Street and travel photography by Dan Skelton.

The Trevi Fountain in daylight
The Pantheon lit up at night above crowded café tables
A pink cloud over rooftops at dusk
Palm trees and a wet plaza after rain
View from the Monte Solaro chairlift over white houses and the sea
A soft sunset over apartment rooftops
Umbrella pines in front of a white marble monument
An ornate painted church ceiling
A leafy view down a narrow city street
The stone embankment of the Tiber under a soft evening sky
The bronze Terme Boxer seated on a plinth
Ancient ruins and a medieval tower at dusk
Tall apartment buildings under a bright sky
Pink evening clouds over buildings and trees
A warmly lit trattoria with wine bottles on the shelves
Umbrella pines above a busy road with scooters
The Trevi Fountain in daylight
The Pantheon lit up at night above crowded café tables
A pink cloud over rooftops at dusk
Palm trees and a wet plaza after rain
View from the Monte Solaro chairlift over white houses and the sea
A soft sunset over apartment rooftops
Umbrella pines in front of a white marble monument
An ornate painted church ceiling

I started taking photographs because I kept forgetting what places felt like. A camera makes me slow down, wait for the light, and actually look at what is in front of me. Most of my favourite frames came from staying an hour longer than I planned. Photography is how I remember that the world is bigger and quieter than my week.

A baroque church facade under a clear sky
Tall pines against a pink sunset sky
A vast fresco filling a church vault
The Jan Hus memorial in front of the Kinský Palace under a blue sky
An arcaded courtyard in warm afternoon light
A shaded narrow street between old buildings
A lively street at blue hour with string lights
A cobbled lane under bare trees
Castel Sant'Angelo beside a marble statue group on the bridge
Low sun flaring down an empty street
Street lamps and flags on an evening avenue
A bright gap between tall buildings
White clouds over a wide square with parked cars
The Pantheon portico and obelisk lit against a black sky
A stone path through a green garden
A baroque church facade under a clear sky
Tall pines against a pink sunset sky
A vast fresco filling a church vault
The Jan Hus memorial in front of the Kinský Palace under a blue sky
An arcaded courtyard in warm afternoon light
A shaded narrow street between old buildings
A lively street at blue hour with string lights
A cobbled lane under bare trees
