[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I'll be honest, i haven't noticed the little man in blue until this morning :)
and I was wondering, if he was real, cause no one was there when I was taking photos ... Maybe he's a ghost, trapped for ever on earth.
So I cropped the photo from the bottom and right sides, so we could see him more, and added more contrast and saturation for the quality of the image :)

Salam Hichem,
I really love this photo. The columns' position, the trees in the background along with the mountains. The natural light (of shadows on columns) is really superb... The entire composition is very soothing to look at. Congrats my friend, a most excellent photo.

As for the little dude, who knows? Perhaps in deep reflection over the fall of the roman empire?
TFS,
Hager

I've seen this documentary about photos where suddenly mysterious persons appear so who knows:)
thanks for sharing,

Capture intéressante de ces vieilles ruines romaines, Hichem, et ce personnage assis à la base de la colonne ajoute une belle dimension à cette photo...il a un pose un peu déprimé donc peut-être n'est-ce pas un fantôme mais plutôt quelqu'un qui considère se jetter en bas du mur...je sais j'ai l'imagination un peu fertile parfois. Bravo!

Bonjour Hichem, les ruines en Tunisie m'ont toujours fort surpris. A Djerba il y a des magnifiques mosaiques, just a cote de la rue, magnifique a voir. Je n'ai jamais ete a Tunis, peut-etre un de ces jours.

Tres belle photo, bonne compo.

Bonjour Hichem, quelle belle composition sur ces ruines.
Bien fait avec le fait de ne pas mettre les colonnes plein centre! Belles couleurs saturees.

J'aime beaucoup voir les montagnes derriere, qui ajoutent de belles courbes a ta composition. Et ces petits arbustes ronds.

Bravo! Yan :)

p.s. merci beaucoup pour les bons mots sur "Canadian War Museum" et "The Tree of Life". J'apprecie beaucoup!

Bonjour,
Je ne crois pas aux fantômes mais il est vrai que les ruines nous rappellent nos ancêtres.
Bonne journée.

Hello Hichem,

Beautiful landscape, the look is
wonderful, big details of these columns
interesting note on the seating person
in the column. I don't have faith in ghosts.
But it was worth for the beautiful landscape
Congratulations

Hi Hichem,
Very well done on composition here!
Interesting angle of lighting brings life to the subject including the guy...
Old ruins are always interesting since they have a story to tell!
Greetings,
