Finally I found the time to write the useful information for this Leaderboards, for which I really thank @AdamGT (as well as thank him for all his other wonderful initiatives!)
Here the information of my “Star photo” portrayed above:
- This is my “star photo”, which currently has 2,315,532 views
- Maps category: High school; the photograph shows the “Armellini” higher technical institute (dedicated to an illustrious Italian engineer and mathematician who lived a century ago)
- The photo was taken on March 3, 2016
- It is certainly not my best photo: other photos, much better, I took around Rome, as well as in the beautiful St. Paul’s Basilica (almost as big as St. Peter’s, and certainly older, having been built well 16 centuries fa), which is located a few tens of meters from this photograph, in the next block.
- The portrayed place is very popular with young people, tourists and pilgrims; also the students who intend to attend this High School contribute to making this photo a “Star Photo”
- The reason for the many views is linked, in addition to the above reasons (see the nearby S. Paul’s Basilica, mentioned in the previous point), also to the presence of the garden that can be seen in the photo, where often - before this sad period - many guys met to listen to music and go to the pubs in the area.
- This photo was taken with my previous Sony D6503 Xperia Z2 smartphone.
I can’t wait to read (so I hope) also my name in the list of “Star photos”, but even if I will not be present, I will still be happy to have participated in this beautiful initiative!
Thanks again, @AdamGT
