Hi Vassilis,
I'm happy to see again a shot of you, it's an impressive one. Such a mighty Citadel and the sky is mystic, like looking back to Dark Ages.
Thanks and bye

Good to see you again, Vassilis, and very intersting composition looking up at the sky with the Citadel hanging on the cliff. Maybe a tad oversharpen for my taste but it is part of your style. Interesting that there are very few colours in this picture - beige on gray with a gray sky. Well done!

Hi Vas,
Nice to see you back. I hope you are better now. Very dramatic picture here, I suppose this is one of thise crusader castles that dot the Meditaranian region. Well done.

Hi Vassilis,
I like the strong diagonal composition!
The rugged texture makes a good impact, it is like the citadel has grown out of the rock...

Your citadel located on the top of the Monemvasia rock
is realy something. Was it used in the old days by the cruisaders? Wonderful clarity/exposure. Everything is nicely placed. Efcharistoh and bye Vassilis..Take it easy ok?!

I missed your beautiful photo's from Greece.
Nice to see you back. This is impressive. The sky adds that dramatic effect that fits the structure very well. It's so clear- as if I can put my hand out and feel the roughness of the walls. Amazing.

Grey, grey, grey... and some brown & green. The dark sky enhances the sense of threat that the citadel invokes. TFS, Βασίλη, and I'm glad that you feel well enough to be on TL again ;o).
Take care

Its got this 'so-full-history-look'. And your postings of such structure never cease to amaze me. Like the angle of capture. Good one.

Hi Vassilis, it is very impressive indeed! And it is so old! Nice textures of the stone. It seems to be growing out of the cliff.

Great work! Yan :)
