Hi Antoni,
A maze indeed! Incredible architecture reinforced by the point of view you choose for framing your photo. I am quite happy to see the two people here, so that gives me a good idea of the dimension of the place. I especially like the little guy on the wall in the foreground.

Lovely point of view, that allows us to concentrate on the main elements. The earthy colours are just beautiful, and the presence of the boy in the foreground made it perfect. Well done.

Great composition. The color is OK and I wish it were a little sharper. The interesting subject makes up for those though. Really good, original, interesting photo.

i like the intricate architecture and the composition that leads the viewer from a labyrinth to the palace uphill, with its reflection in the pond as a cherry on the pie! Great tones and light also! Beautiful work!

These villages are famous and you have presented one very well. I like the reflection in the pool, Antoni, and the solitary child in the foreground gives the whole thing scale and a touch of humanity. I would be fascinated to know what the structures in the foreground are. Are the the ruins of houses or do they have another function? regards kevin

artistic composition. looks rustic yet appealing. the POV is well composed to show the old building and its reflections.
a maze, indeed....but i don't get dizzy looking at it!

I found myself staring at this for quite some time the other day. With my love for this medium of expression, I still do not do that very often. Its an awesome image. Stylish and atmospheric. That building and grey sky are the perfect backdrop to this stlightly haunting scene - I'm pleased you kept it in colour. The two boys are perfectly placed and seem to be doing the right thing too.

The reflection of the castle is the icing, I think...

Your recent photographs are noteworthy. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you will do..

Hi again,
Ethiopie, Yemen, two countries of my own top where I would like to go... I envy you !
The picture is very well composed, the boy alone on the bottom adds a good presence.
Perfect colors as well.
