Antique columns in Jerash Photo

Photographer’s Note

Jerash is known for the ruins of the Greco-Roman city of Gerasa, also referred to as Antioch on the Golden River. It is sometimes misleadingly referred to as the "Pompeii of the Middle East or Asia", referring to its size, extent of excavation and level of preservation (though Jerash was never buried by a volcano). Jerash is considered one of the most important and best preserved Roman cities in the Near East. It was a city of the Decapolis.

Hi Mariusz,
A pleasing composition of these columns facing a blue sky!
I like the wide angle perspective!
A sharp and well lighted capture.
Well done.
Regards.

Hi Mariusz,

you really chose a perfect POV, allowing columns to create an original shape. The contrast between their color and the sky is great.

Compliments!
