Description Translate
Sunday Sky Number 269:

The Erechtheion is the temple on the Acropolis which also has the famous porch of the Caryatids, which is on the other side of this structure.

This is dedicated to Chris Panageotidis, who does this kind of shot much better than I do!

1/24/2010 10:25:25 AMAs Chris says in his 'Passage in Gothic quarter, Barcelona' image posted a few days ago, it pays to look up instead of looking down.... off course he used a different quote. Marvelous view of the Erechtheion presented with great clarity and under a lovely blue sky!!!!

COChris Panagiotidis, Greece
1/24/2010 2:50:52 AMThank you , Carl, for the dedication,you recorded this marvel of the antiquity in a way that is second to none. You were also blessed to see Erectheion crowned by this marvelous Attic sky that brings out the real colour texture of the Pentelic marble it was made of. Being the most complex edifice of the antiquity, with its three different levels and the restrictions of the spot on the Acropolis rock, making a decent photo of Erectheion is always a challenge. When I think I came up with something good, I have a quick look in the B&W work of the 1900's master Franc Boissonas whose passing from Greece left unsurpassed traces-and the ambition is refueled!
Kudos!
