    Temple of Jupiter!

    Hi guys,

    Not sure if anyone here is into Roman ruins, but I thought I'd post a few pictures I took at Jupiter's Temple in Baalbek, Lebanon. I also have some taken in the Hezbollah "museum" at the entrance of the temple, but they are politically sensitive...so I held off for now.

    Anyone ever been? Beautiful area.

    Jared

    Edit: Not sure why I chose to post three photos, all focused on the foreground on the least interesting part of the scene. Oh well.

    Pentax K10D, Tamron 28-75mm 2.8, Pentax-M 50mm 1.7.

    Feel free to edit/repost my photos for c&c.

    Very nice! When I saw the title of the thread my sci-fi mind went to "Oh did they get set photos of the temple of Jupiter from Battlestar Galactica"

    Don't worry, these are good to!
