Picture Perfect- Two


Two columns remain on the Temple of Jupiter in Pompeii, Italy. Off in the distance, you see Mount Vesuvius. I'm amazed that there is structure among these ruins. I really expected foundations and footings, but in many cases tall structures like these survived being buried for nearly 2000 years.

    And now, of course, they're exposed to the elements so they can fall into even further disrepair.

    Nice shot. :o)
