Porch of the Maidens - Erechtheion .jpg

The Porch of the Maidens is on the side of the Erechtheion, built between 421 - 405 BC, and located near the Parthenon on the Acropolis.
The female figures form columns holding up the roof of the structure.
The maidens in this image are copies, the originals being preserved in the Acropolis Museum. (See next image)

cant understand people shooting with dSLR expensive cams and lenses and showing their "art" in reduce format so that nobody could guess if they were made by mobile or by super puper cam

Wow. I just love this gallery. Really shows off the architecture, your eye and the 24-105. Great captures.
