Hi Vassilis,
this is romantic - like a door to a big tower of "Rapunzel" - it's a fairy tail of a girl sitting in a tower and waiting for her prince.
Perhaps you know it?!?
When I saw your shot, I remembered this story.
Excellent, I like it, bye

Nice to see you back Vassilis, nicely exposed picture with great detail in both the shadows and highlights. Nice use of portrait mode too. Like the way the path and stairs lead the eye into the shot.

Defenitely the setting for a fairytale or maybe some action from Lord of the Rings.
Good composition, textures and colour.

The shadows in combination with the path are very nice.
Good balance in light and shadow. The vanishing point (the door is a little low)
Maybe if you cut of the top it become stronger.
But I am not sure

Hello my friend, back again with some old shots, huh? :)
This is a very nice work, classic Vassilis with nice blue Mediterranian sky and rocks. Details are sharp and composition is accurate, as always.
Good work, nice to see you again my friend, regards!

Good one Vassilis. Looks like a favourite haunt of ghosts and monsters! I like the tight crop.

Nice and sharp image,Vassilis! Interesting composition! I like very much the texture and beleive it or not,my eyes were attracted immediatly by that piece of metal (I think it is some kind of metal,I might be wrong) right in the middle of the picture on the right side! Because that texture is so different compare to the rocks! Very interesting! Michel

Another fine composition with a great POV.
Good shadow play and a nice strong blue sky. Razor sharp detail.
Well done :)

Hi Vassilis,
I love this POV where you get the framing on the left hand side! Stairs are always fascinating, here I get a really old one taking me to the doorway in the tower... Wonder what's inside?? Very good colours and textures in a pleasing composition, well done!

There are a couple of ruins like this one, castles from the Templar Knights, on Rhodes.. Nice capture with a great PoV, Βασίλη. I hope you took a close-up of that wooden/iron door of which we can see only a glimpse here ;o).
TFS.

Wonderful shot Vassilis. Well composed using the structure almost as a frame to lead to the delightful view. Good strong, natural colours. TFS

Hi Vassilis,
Great composition and POV, with clarity and sharpness. Very nicely done. So who built it and why ? It seems to have a rough 10th century look about it, as opposed to artisitic Greek style. TFS,
Sam

Γειά σου Βασίλη

Φαίνεται ότι έχω μείνει πολύ πίσω στην κριτική των φωτογραφιών σου! :)

Εξαιρετική. Ακριβώς όπως θα την τραβούσα κι εγώ (κι αυτό με κάνει να μου αρέσει περισσότερο!). Ωραίο το παιχνίδι με τις σκιές και το φως του ήλιου. Εξαιρετικές λεπτομέρειες. Πολλή καλή!

I like the angle... It show the detail a lot and i like the oenning in the left wall who show how high is the place!

Hello Vassilis,
A spectacular shot . . . I would expect something like this to be featured in a guide book. You can't walk by this; you have to go and explore!
Excellent sharpness, colors, and contrast.
The best,
Karen
