Once again fantastic, and not just the way the monochrome looks, the monastery way up there is proof of man's ingenuity and madness in his urge for spiritual enlightenment.SINA 01/07/2014 23:37
GREATALEXANDER
ringsherum Felsen und ein Blick der in die Weite führt
aus dem inneren des Klosters ......

my first thought – very mundane, i'm afraid ; ) – was that the architecture of that ancient monastery, with its rounded walls and whitewashed look seemed strikingly up--to-date – like a forerunner of today's postmodern architecture… for some strange reason i'm thinking frank gehry… great, all those different kinds of rock in the image – man-made (steps and walls) and nature-made in perfect harmony! greetings, sabine.Lawson McCulloch 29/06/2014 20:09

This is a superb scene with the ancient Monastery clinging to the cliff and the path leading us there. One has to marvel at the ingenuity of those who built this place.:))
