Pacing to the past...

Greece
Creta island
Ancient Festos.
Festos was the second biggest center, after Knossos, of Minoan kingdom, a civilization that flourished 2500 years BC...
In the photo the young tourist, although annoyed by my camera, will definitely continue his walk on the ancient ruins thinking that somebody else did the same 2500 years ago....

    I am sure that we have all stood in a particular place and imagined who was there all those many years ago.
    In this fine shot I like very much the stones that the young man stands on.
    best wishes,
