This really gives us a sense of history. We don't have that in the western hemisphere. Thanks for sharing. The moss on the stones gives a very lovely look and even have some mountains in the background.

Ed - That is it? You can only go back 6000 years for photo work? lol As I noted in a previous post, the walls built upon those of preceding eras is part of what is fascinating about the countries of Europe. As Gabi notes, in North America, we don't have that depth of history; we measure ages by five centuries, Europe does so by six millennia. Wonderful post-photo work. Thad

Putting your pictures in my favorites is the highest honor I can give you. If I could, I would give you an award. But alas, I cannot. So the highest praise I can award you with, is faving your artwork.

I love this one, Ed. The contrast between the stones and the lamp really caught my attention. Well done, again.
