Mdina on top of the hill, a photo from Malta, South

Photographer's Note

Mdina, Citt� Vecchia, or Citt� Notabile, is the old capital of Malta. Mdina is a medieval walled town situated on a hill in the centre of the island. Punic remains uncovered beyond the city𠏋 walls suggest the importance of the general region to Malta𠏋 Phoenician settlers. Mdina is commonly called the "Silent City" by natives and visitors alike. The town is still confined within its walls, and has a population of less than three hundred, but it is contiguous with the village of Rabat, which takes its name from the Arabic word for suburb, and has a population of over 11,000.

Nice composition and POV. I think there was too much sharpening done to it, because when you view it at 800 pix max, it becomes spotty as you can see in the white spots. A little saturation will give the green more life. I wish they allow more than 800 pix to enjoy the pictures more.

Hello Francis,
This beautiful villa situated on the hill. Excellent prospect with very good light and natural colors, but I believe that abuse of the definition.
Best wishes,
Charo
