I hope you enjoy my Fez series.

This is such an interesting place. I am amazed how these buildings seem to have literally grown from the land and have been a part of it forever.

This series is fascinating. This scene looks like something out of Star Wars or some other alternate universe. Wonderful.

Great shot you don't appreciate how big the area is until you see the people beside the baths

Again a great composition and I like the touches of blue on the roofs and baths in combination with the rusty brown colors.

Another nice picture. The pools of dye, the odd figures and the row of satellite dishes the only indication that this crumbling scene is not utterly abandoned to the past

Fez is such a unique city, you are fortunate that you made this trip.

O que é a (pouco confiável) estrutura de madeira à direita?
Magnifica combinação de cores. O ocre dos edificios confere-lhes um aspecto surreal.

It is really interesting to see how this workplace is integrated into the residences, something that got quite unusual nowadays.

It does take the people by these baths to give the whole picture scale. The buildings are very interesting too. The more one looks the more there seems to be available to be seen! :-)

Little hints at life which contradict your eyes, tinking that this is an abandoned area. So much detail here, so much history. A fabulous shot, and series

Oi, pois, o trabalho e as obrigações e burocracias não me deixam muito tempo para fotografar. Pode ser que daqui a pouco tempo consiga colocar algo de novo, mas a actividade lá para os meus lados vai diminuir um bocado (infelizmente).
Uma beijoca!

Respect to this people who are doing this job.
This is a hard work and I am not sure that everybody would like to have a "bath"!
