Photographer's Note
A daylight view of Dubrovnik, after the night view already posted. Click on the picture to see the larger size.
Yuo can notice the structure of the old town, surrounded by heavy fortifications and towers. Also the main road "Stradun" is visible, a set of house facades making a line right behind the first wall. The roofs are mainly rebuilt, because of the criminal bombing made during the Yugoslavian wars by serbian crazy generals in the 1991.
Tecnhically, a stitch of 4 pictures taken at 70x1,5=105 mm eq. focal length, stiched, autolevels for contrast, sharpened as needed.

Magnificent pan shot, and from that PoV really demonstrates the vulnerabilty of the town at times of conflict.

Ciao Marko
very nice picture of this aerian view of one the famous city of Craotia. The stitch is very good and your link about the war is very instructive.
Well done.

Superb!
Was it taken from a mountain or from some kind of a flying vehicle? Looks like the latter but stitching supposes the former. I've been at Dubrovnik, but have been walking only around the old city itself. The look from above is just fantastic!

What a vistapoint you have found for this one, Marko! You are giving us an excellent "inside" look of this beautiful old town. I like your framing, very tasteful in my eyes. This is very good indeed! Enjoy the rest of your Sunday, Barbara.

Wwow, Marko,
what a view! And what a fantastic job of stitching. I love that contrast in the red of the roof tops and the blue water. I like the many curves and sharp angles with excellent detail, too. Nicely done!! Warm regards,
Shelly

Ciao Marko,
Despite the unfortunate fact that I've never been to Dubrovnik, I doubt I could ever find a terrestrial vantage point that tops this one. The details are so well presented here that one could easily trace a map of the fortified city. Well done!
Cheers,
Caleb
