A new featured picture taken by
User:Ggia in April 2011, this panorama shows the north walls of the ruined and uninhabited medieval Armenian city-site of
Ani in a visually dramatic and naturally defensive landscape. At its height, Ani had a population of 100,000–200,000 people and was the rival of Constantinople, Baghdad and Cairo. To view the image, please use the horizontal scroller or the
interactive large-image-viewer (
non-Flash).

I'd like to think Professor Ferguson would approve of his image becoming a Featured Picture, though he'd probably have different views on this one :-) —An optimist on the run! 05:21, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
