I thought there was a larger full size version but I've just realized there's just the normal size! I've edited it so it's a bit bigger now, esp if click full size if you'd like to revisit

I have always wanted to go to Greece! This is a very nice shot I love the contrast between the pillars and the sky. It really portrays the greatness of Grecian arcitecture.

I love the way you chose to angle and crop this piece. You have a nice eye and it works so wonderfully. You are angled just perfectly to give this a nauseatingly tall and powerful feel. Great piece and great bold colors. Did you enhance this at all? Either way nice work.

Thanks for the thoughtful critique And yes I edited it a bit, increased saturation/contrast etc., but not too much. Often photos from my camera look faded, so I usually end up editing most.

Katj [2009-04-09 21:33:56 +0000 UTC]

The contrast of the old building with the sky is fabulous, really. Also, the angle at which it was taken (pointing up) symbolises the greatness of the old Greeks/Romans (I'm not sure which it were..) This could work well in a touristic magazine, for sightseeingspots.
