Photographer's Note
Wawel Cathedral stands on Wawel Hill in Krakow and has a 1000 year history. It is the spiritual centre of the Polish state, the coronation site of most Polish monarchs and the burial place of most Polish kings and national heroes.

Hi Marlene,
Thank you for posting a photo from my country.
Indeed, Wawel Cathedral is the spiritual centre of Poland.
The golden roof belongs to chapel where are buried the kings from Jagiellonian Dynasty. They ruled Poland in the Golden Age of our history. Poland was in this time one of biggest and most powerful countries in Europe, including in its borders the land from Baltic sea to the Black Sea. I'm talking seriously.
Sic transit gloria mundi...
Best Regards
Chris

Olá Marlene!
Beautiful architecture I love the light on the golden dome of the cathedral and the mixing of different colors of the other towers and dome.
Congratulations and thanks for sharing,
Ana

Hello Marlene! You've written a critique to ma photo of Wawel, so I enterd your site and see... also Wawel. But you were more on the right:-) I think the colours are better, and the sky with clouds look really great! Thanks a lot for your critique, and also for your beautiful gallery.
