Hi Heather, great to have you back.
ReplyDeleteTo all others, with my simple engineering approach I estimate the size of the picture as 600x400m. Looks kind of italian-spanish to me..
Hi Heather,
ReplyDeleteI think that it's the ruins of Corinth,Greece, destroyed by the Romans 146BC.
In the center is the remains of the temple of Applo, buit in 550BC
Hi Felix, Hi Geoff!
ReplyDeleteGeoof, you are right - it is Corinth. So congrats and over to you!
Well, that would be Geoff not Geoof (although I quite like the latter ...).
