Delphi, Sterea Ellada, Greece

it's ironic traveling to countries both interesting and warm, at great expense, and some days the weather turns out just like back home...with luck the locations offset the rainy conditions

Doesn't look rainy to me...a fine shot and definitely worthy of a second thought!

This is a lovely image in every way and very compelling. In my limited travels it has often been as you describe.

Even amidst gloomy skies, this scene remains strikingly beautiful. It is truly a special place, steeped in mythic lore and human history, and this view captures it splendidly...V

Whatever the weather Delphi is for me one of the most important place in the world. It Brings us back to the high memory of men, to the source of the sacred, home to the Omphalos or «navel of the world». Impossible to be indifferent when standing in front of this sacred place...Great that you have been there.
