Selene Rising and the Temple of Poseidon was created by ayiomamitis
Dear Friends,
It may have taken 15 months but it all came together this evening when I managed to get the proper balance in the lighting between the rising moon and the archaelogical grounds (22-24 minutes after sunset ONLY) as well as the proper azimuth and altitude for me to position myself so as to have the right perspective and orientation.
I hope you like at least one of the three photos from below.

Please note that these photos are NOT composites but single photos and, hence, for the "little" marathon.
Clear skies.
Anthony.

Absolutely Stunning!
That's the real art of photography there. The technical stuff is perfect but so is the whole composition of the picture.

They are simply beautiful shots, particularly the first one. It is one you could frame and hang on the wall! Fabulous!
