Hi Again,
Our "Phantom Photographer" has struck again. First, we have more shots of the Capitolium in Ostia (near Rome) from VENDETTA - and then photos from Venice and THE BRIDGE OF SPIES. I've "re-used" many of "P.P.'s" photos and matched them up with several different screen captures from the episodes. I think you'll see why when you see the 'wonderfulness" of all the details.
(There are a number of photographs here, so please give things a moment to load. If the number of photos is causing problems for anyone, or taking too long to load, please let me know - and I will post them in smaller groups.)
NOW & THEN - photos on the left taken a few weeks ago - photos on the right from the "I SPY" 60s.

Back at the Capitolium in Ostia ... Alicia is leading unsuspecting Kelly to his capture in these fascinating ruins.
Fortunately for them, they didn't have to hop over the rope barriers when they were there.
Kelly and Alicia entering the Capitolium. Perfect angle, Phantom Photographer! You were probably standing exactly in Fouad's footprints.
She leads him a little further in - (the column/obelisk looks exactly the same).
The same spot - (it does look like some of the greenery has been removed since Kelly strolled there).
and further .....
Then a look around .... (Note all the brickwork and missing sections) .... BEHIND YOU, KELLY, BEHIND YOU!!!
Only to be surprised by Buck Private Romolo Terrazi holding a gun
.... if he had waited 40 years longer, he could have hidden under that blue tarpaulin and really scared Kelly!
Don Federico arrives .... (Great matching shot, oh Phantom Photographer!!)
Kelly is now confronted by all of Remo's family - (note the background details) - all the same.
With Kelly captured, the family leaves the Capitolium for his court-martial trial. It's amazing how little things have changed in this shot.
Thank you so much, Phantom Photographer!!
These were great shots ... next time Venice and THE BRIDGE OF SPIES - THEN & NOW.
As always,
Tatia
