From the archive: Oracle Delphi 1983
Delphi, the remains of the temple of Apollo where the oracle (Pythia) gave answers to questions. Just a bit tongue in cheek to this week’s lens artistists challenge #168: seen better days.
About the B4 retouch series:
I browsed my archive for pictures to publish. Some of them are partly retouched but most do have scratches, dust and stains.
The picture was originally shot with Pentax K1000 on Kodak Plusx, scanned from negative
and tweaked using Snapseed and Marksta. Click the picture for a larger version.

A place I never got to, alas. And I understand there are hordes of tourists to contend with now….

I am not sure, the only time I visited was 1983. It is beautiful, and I am sure you might find some quiet spots at the beginning or end of the day?

Yes, that’s quite a place. It changes so much as you go from east to west.

Excellent. I was there around 1990. It was hot and dry. I was not moved to have visions!
