Argos Orestikon Photo

Photographer’s Note

Hi friends.
Here I come with two shots with my old compact camera.
You see here a defensive wall it comes from the Hellenistic-Macedonian time and also the Roman time.
Some details of the defensive wall are built at the Hellenistic time and some at the Roman time.
They are very close to Argos Orestikon in prefecture Kastoria.
It was known as: Koinon Argaedea-Κοινόν Αργαίδαι-Common Argaedea and at the Roman time as Dioklitianoupolis.
At this region was a relative big town at classical time.
The other photo is on WS.
Regards to all.

Yasu Evan filemou,
Very nice composition, with the old castle and the triangle that it made on the left side of the photo. The color of the skies is wonderfll and makes a nice contrast with the brown earth.
Very nice. Heretismata.

Kalimera Evan.
Une ruine bien restaurée pour nous rappeler l'époque de la Grèce Antique. J'aime la simplicité de la composition et la belle lumière sout un ciel des plus beaux.

Hi Evan,
These beautiful historic ruins stand out brilliantly against the vivid blue sky.
The brilliant light brings out all the ancient details and lovely foreground textures to this compelling sight.
