The Window of Monte Cristo
VIEW LARGE PLEASE
This reminds me of the French Dungeons.. and the Count of Monte Cristo..one of my favorite books of all time….
Genius plot writer, Alexander Dumas, constructed a story so evil, so clever, and so violent that future reads will just be boring. The sum of the book can be understood in three simple words…”Pede poena claudo”, or “retribution comes limping.” To seek justice for the three men who so selfishly stole 14 years of his life, Edmund Dantes uses deception to emotionally and financially destroy his foes. 
The Window of Monte Cristo belongs to the following groups:
Rusty, Crusty and Falling to Bits and Textures and MaterialsAvailable for sale as Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints, Framed Prints and Posters

Nice shot. I wonder though, why they needed bars when there was a solid wall of rock there :) – maybe the rock was soft? lol.

This is fantastic Lina – and so aptly titled! Great macro, my friend! It’s one of my favorite books too oddly enough!

throughout time….....i love the colors of rust and this image is captivating to my eyes…taking me thru the time of the bars…it is releasing to me…it feel free, not held down..and by looking deeper i see the colors meld together the colors of the rust and the rock below…i really like this image lina…..

This is fantastic, Lena, such texture! You should submit it to the ‘textures and materials’ group.
I love your reference to “French Dungeons” and the book, which I have never read – I will now!

In the movie they had bars..and it has been so long since I read the book.. humm so much food for thought this morning.. maybe I should re-read! xox
linaji in reply to lianne’s comment, 3 months ago
Hi Lianne..
Just telling Linda.. I did not think this as a Macro but it is!! I associate Macro with flowers..opps! thanks so much for your view dear Lianne!
linaji in reply to aspectsoftmk’s comment, 3 months ago
Yes dear One.. the rock behind the bars is like another world altogether!! Love your feeling around this as it was taken at the most famous beach you will be exploring upon your arrival!
linaji in reply to RLHall’s comment, 3 months ago
