European Wild East Photo

Photographer’s Note

I titled this image 'European Wild East' to emphasize the importance of saving of rundown historical building and the weak burse for this purpose in Eastern Europe.

I created this photo in the central square of Levoca/Locse/Leutschau, a once shiny commercial and cultural centre of Slovakian, Hungarian, German, Polish people cca. 40km far in South-Eastern direction to the Tatras.

To be honest I am not fair to this quaint old little town, because this is the odd one out of the recently renovated really beautiful pieces of architectural heritage.

To be continued...

What a definition. The details are perfect. I looked at the picture carefully but I can not tell whether the building is wrong or the photo does not have the vertical lines perfectly aligned.
The result is excellent in every case.

Szia Jalab!
Köszönöm kritikád:)) Nagyon örültem neked! Sajnos egészségi problémáim vannak, ezért ritkán vagyok itt! Tumor van a fejemben. Jóindulatú, csak az agyban a gyűjtőéren van rajta. Ha megnő, akkor műtik! Na magamról ennyit!
Sajnos sok ilyen épület van még nálunk is! Kiváncsian várom a következőt!
Üdv, Zsú
