The Road to Damascus

By picturepost

Port Said, originally uploaded by TwOsE.

This image by Pablo Twose Valls is, according to the author, a super-imposition of two photographs. The scene is a composite of an old Roman road in Damascus, now protected beneath an awning that creates wonderful, diagonal shards of light.

It has a really beautiful feel to it. In fact, until I translated the Spanish caption from his original Flickr post using Altavista’s Babelfish, I thought it was one photo!

    Hi, I took this photo more than a year ago. Is superposition of two photographs, but both two are of the same place. the only thing it changes of each other is that I took one of them a few meters forward than the another.

    Port Said is a famous road in damascus, but actually I figure out that isn“t it the one of the photo :P

    thx for you wonderfull words about the photo, and I hope you coul understand my poor english :P
