triple arc stone bridge
Filaretos -
I'm surprised I'm the first to comment on this photo. This is really quite good. No doubt about it the triple arc is something you don't see often, if at all - not where I'm from anyway.
I love the composition, the manner in which the bridge begins in the lower left corner and then straddles the creek in three even strides, ending amidst the treetops. That's really quite interesting in itself, but then there's the stone wall beyond, and behind that the sheer rock face.
This must've been quite a ride back when it was constructed - whether on foot, horseback or carriage, but can you imagine this bridge being used for a WRC rally? Oh - MY!!!

Dear sir
I too much thank for your good comments, they give me courage I continue my hobby. It is truths that it should iam lucky so that i take a good photograph!In the end of bridge what appears is not a wall but a peace from the mountain, resembles with wall because they is the type of the rocks in this particular aria. I will upload sum other photograph to see how the people constructing they homes with the same material.Seriously no WRC rally here look at my pic risky walk thats why!!
this place here its a National park.
