I'm absolutely thrilled to see one of my favourite photos of bella Roma gracing the front cover of this month's Qantas Travel Insider magazine.

St. Peter's Basilica is beautifully framed by an impressive hedge corridor, which is located in a private garden that is only accessible a few days of the year.  Needless to say, I was overjoyed to gain access on a day when the light perfectly illuminated the iconic dome.

If you're flying with Qantas this month, be sure to check out the feature on Rome, which includes more of my photos showcasing the city's gems, including Trastevere, Testaccio, and Gianicolo.
