hi friends! good to be back after a long and fantastic trip through some european cities. here starts my views on them and their beauties.

this pic was taken at the Athens' Acropolis, through the monumental columnade of the Propileus, now being restored. i thinked that to partially show the structure built to do that, along with the ancient relics of the wonderful greek architecture and the sight over the city would make an intersting composition. hope you enjoy!

... and many thanks to all you for your comments on my latest landscapes. i was already in tour when they appeared, so i was not able to reply and thank to each you.

best regards and a great new year to all you!!!

diar Ricardo? it's realy a great picture!
excellent perspective of columnade amplified by the sight over the city! very good light!
imho, the top of the picture could be cuted by the line of horizontal beam
it's not reduce contrast between antiquity and present (built structure is visible between columns), but effect of column's verticals will increase (it'll seems, that columns reach heavens)
