This is Harvard University’s stadium. It is famed for its football games, though this night it was a venue for a game of lacrosse. It has something of a coliseum feel to it with the arches and the way it is laid out. Go Crimson!
People give a lot of money here to support college football. (American football). We have our own issues with this. People make a lot of money from the game but college players are not aloud to be paid. Some colleges find other ways to pay athletes without money. Letting people play who have bad grades. Tsk tsk tsk.
And another “Italy”-shot! π It looks stunning, especially in b/w! Wonder how it must feel to actually play there instead of just being part of the audience?
It is huge. Our Universities haven’t stadiums.
Nice B&W shot π
Cheers! β€
Thanks, Monica. Some of the universities have stadiums that are bigger. It is really amazing. The universities get a lot of money from sports.
They know how to make business. Here, they expect money from the Government.

This is an issue. Here, they find a way to avoid laws to pay athletes π
I though exactly what Mopana said: it is huge! Awaiting the Christians and lions….
Ha ha ha. Yes, exactly. It’s like the set of Gladiator. Cheers

I’m not sure I’d want to play football there. It’s a bit violent for my tastes. I’d be up for watching a game there. Cheers
The first picture is just stunning ! Did you take it as a panaroma? Love the click, Chris !
Thank you, Himali. It was a regular shot taken with a wide angle lens but I cropped it to look like a panoramic image. Cheers
I like the idea… I thought it’s panaromic! Brilliant capture π
Wow!!
Great in B & W, too! You captured a lot in this view with the curve of the stadium.
Thank you. The stadium is beautiful for a BW image. Cheers!
It is a great idea, Chris. Football stadiums are timeless.
