Juno, Jupiter and Minerva Temples Photo

Photographer’s Note

These are the backsides of the temples I've posted a few pictures of lately. I think they are equally impressive, remember that these are almost 2000 years old.

I was obviously a little careless when I took this picture, the leftmost part of the Juno temple is missing, but none the less I believe it's interesting to see this side too. I think I was a little stressed by the 'guide' that had joined me just before this shot. He was nice and knowledgable, but so was my guidebook, and the book didn't want money.

Great work as usual Simon! I like the way the sky fades in the background - very nice. The colour of the stone is good too - leaves an aged impression. There seems to be some noise in the sky though - if you can, try NeatImage to get rid of it.

Nice lines, Simon, and nice composition. Very serene and vey Roman. It also oozes Mediterranean climate (in spite of the noise in the sky) it seems like a peaceful place.

This has a strong feel to it even though it is the back. They still dominate the area behind them as you have captured. The road leads up to them nicely. These are very Roman temples. It's a bit on the bright side but detail is still good. I like the remaining parts of the pediment of Juno. They look out of place now in relation to the simple stonework of the cella. Nicely captured.

Voila une bonne image et a en voir cette forte luminosité je ne vois aucune surexposition d'ou de bons réglage.
J'aime bien les détails des pierres et surtout le reste de ces ruine toujours en bon état pour 2000ans.
Bien et merci de la visite Simon
