Segesta / E Pl-2



By now it has become obvious that the Olympus E PL-2 has become my favorite travel camera and even all around camera. It has superb image quality, portability, interchangeable lenses and the abilty to use many older lenses using appropriate adapters. The 2X factor must be taken into consideration. Here we see the use of the 9-18 zoom that is equivalent to 18-36 mm. Not too shabby. Again thr site is Segesta and in particula it's glorious Doric temple that is unique in that it does not have a cella or inner chamber. It was a sunny Sicilian day and the sky did not betray the presence of clouds.
BTW, the Greek temples in Sicily are in much netter shape and are much better preserved that those in Greece or in any other parts of Magna Grecia. Needless to say, us Sicilians are very proud of or Hellenic roots.
