These were taken in Ceasarera on Israel's Mediterranean coast.
It was built by Herod The Great and later used by the Romans and then taken over by Crusaders.
I am pleased with the results of using 50 speed Ilford film on these photographs. The film was out of date and had been through an xray machine but was perfectly fine and worked very well in the strong Mediterranean sunlight.
It’s not fully appreciable in the scaled down versions of these photos for the web but the film really did bring out the detail and texture of the stone work. Overall, I think monochrome suited this subject, which doesn’t really have a great deal of colour to it anyway.
Camera was Canon EOS5 with a 70 - 300mm lens.
