The light-colored buildings are beautiful as are the tiles of flooring. The history is interesting with this architecture, character(s) in the midst, and info fine. Thanks for sharing.

When I see this photo I so much wish It was only the "Romans" there, and not a single tourist. That would have made for a great shot Fred. But they are there and it is still possible to see how impressive the constructions are. I did not know about this place, and find it very interesting.

The photo is sharp showing such clear and well defined details throughout the whole photo, and the exposure is perfect.

The framing and format is fine, and I like your point of view. It is a truly interesting, great looking and well taken photo.

The Roman architecture of the 4 Century is amazing and thanks to you I get a chance to view it and wonder how it was able to survive for so many years. Thank you for presenting this wonderful example of the Roman architecture of the time. Ray

You have certainly traveled extensively. This photo tells a wonderful story of historical proportion. The scene shot down through the center of the castle shows the architecture of the times and how well it has been preserved. Fun scene.

Great look at these Roman ruins! It looks like an interesting place and I can see that it attracts a lot of tourists. The men dressed in Roman costume add interest to this historic sight. You photographed this very well with excellent exposure and sharpness.

This is interesting Fred it like mixing the old with the new, those two dressed in the outfits whilst all the other seem to be totally unaware of them!
I also like that vanishing point perspectives leading you eye to the back of the image!

Fred,
A beautiful & interesting picture of the Roman Diocletian Palace in Split, Croatia complete with two "Surviving" Roman soldiers standing Guard as the tourists take their pictures.
Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

A great view of the old castle and outbuildings. I like the flagstone pavement and the eclectic mix of people on it. The two with the pikes and Roman garb are particularly nice.

Amazing picture of these ancient Roman ruins. I had to return to your notes to realise the age of them as they look so pristine in you photograph. Your history story is so interesting and well written. The capture is clear and well focussed. It is nicely balanced. I like that the street or courtyard are central with the large building at the end leading you in to view all. The people are spaced well so timing was of the essence and achieved.
