Photographer's Note
Palmyra, a Greek outpost at one time, was annexed by Rome in 217 AD and became a centre of unsurpassed wealth. Today the ruins of the 2nd century city have been extensively excavated and resored. The picture was taken in late afternoon.

I love the colours in this abstract shot, you took it at a well timed point too, it really brings out the rich reds and oranges of the temple.
