Photographer's Note
Strolling in the streets of the traditional and old neighborhood of Varosi there are a lot of old and preserved houses as others in ruins,as this one.
You can see here a larger,sharper and more detailed version of the photo.
Edessa, Greece
Edessa,known as "city of waters",is a city in northern Greece and the capital of the Pella regional unit, in the Central Macedonia region of Greece. It was also the capital of the defunct province of the same name.
Edessa holds a special place in the history of the Greek world as, according to some ancient sources, it was here that Caranus established the first capital of ancient Macedon.Later, under the Byzantine Empire, Edessa benefited from its strategic location, controlling the Via Egnatia as it enters the Pindus mountains, and became a center of medieval Greek culture, famed for its strong walls and fortifications.In the modern period, Edessa was one of Greece's industrial centers until the middle of the 20th century, with many textile factories operating in the city and its immediate vicinity. Today however its economy mainly relies on services and tourism. Edessa hosts most of the administrative services of the Pella regional unit, as well as some departments of the Thessaloniki-based University of Macedonia.

Bonjour Danos,
Lorsque j'ai vu cette maison sur Facebook ce matin, je me suis dit qu'elle avait beaucoup besoin d'un petit peu d'amour. Mais j'aime beaucoup les textures de l'ensemble.
Amicalement

Kalispera Danos,
A torn-down faηade, but it makes a nice focal object and a perfect POV chosen.
The smallest details shown in fine clarity, green vegetation added charm to the whole.
Have a nice weekend,
Ike

Καλησπέρα Δάνο,
πολύ πρωτότυπη και ενδιαφέρουσα εικόνα, εκπληκτικός ο τίτλος που της έδωσες. Το σπίτι, που κάποτε μάλλον φάνταζε ωραίο και εντυπωσιακό, μοιάζει να αποσυντίθεται και είναι πολύ ενδιαφέρον να διαβάσουμε την ιστορία του από τις λεπτομέρειες και τα υλικά που είναι εκτεθειμένα τώρα. Από το κτήριο που εφαπτόταν έχουν απομείνει λίγα ίχνη και η φύση τα σκεπάζει κι αυτά. Εξαιρετική η σαφήνεια της περιγραφής, ελκυστικά τα χρώματα. Συγχαρητήρια και ευχαριστώ!
Να είσαι καλά, καλό Σαββατοκύριακο,
Ουρανία

Hello Danos,
It is quite interesting when you can see through a building and parts of the walls like this, which enables you to study the materials used and the building techniques. You photographed this well, with excellent colours and clarity. But I find it rather depressing when old houses are left to this state of decay. They should be either maintained or pulled down, instead of shaming the street, or the town. But I guess it's a matter of money. Who should pay if there is no known owner?
Kind regards,
Gert

Bonjour Danos,
The textural details in the dilapidated old building are superb. Good sharpness and excellent color and saturation. The open room at right adds interest. Tfs!

Hello Danos,
Excellent old house close-up photo with very nice colors, perfect light, very good clarity and splendid details.
Also the choice of tight cropping suits the shape of the subject.
Well seen and captured.
Greetings

Dear Danos,
Yes, the double storey house is telling its story. I like the way you have shown the ruined house. Once it was full of life.
