Photographer's Note
Another view of the castle, with the same clock-tower visible in the image that was posted yesterday. This is the 5 street corner showing 3 of the streets. The Ottoman Turk origins of the town are clearly visible with the overhanging upper floors. There are only 23 posts from this location so I hope you enjoy one or 2 more.

Hello Chris,
The buildings may not be in tiptop condition, but you cannot say they lack charm. I like the expansive point of view and the lively atmosphere. Excellent technical realisation.

Hi Chris
The upper floor doesn't look very secure haha, not a building style I am familiar with. A really great architectural scene with a wealth of variety. Beautiful colours and light too
Cheers

Bonsoir, cher Chris,
Ne connaissant pas l'Albanie, je suis heureux de découvrir la ville, son architecture, son château et ses remparts.
Un grand merci pour ce partage très apprécié.
Amitiés.

Hi there! The building is definitely eye catching. Funny that there still seem to live someone, judged by the red flag...

Bonsoir Chris,
La longueur de la rue donne d ela profondeur à la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails des immeubles. La bonne luminosité rehausse la beauté des couleurs. Bonne soirée.

Hello Chris,
A very picturesque corner in Gjirokaster with an impressive castle crowning the green hill and overlooking the whole town.
The shops prove that this place has become quite touristic.
The different Albanian flags are real eye-catchers in the street view.
Best regards, Paul

Skipped this one by mistake, Chris.
Its a wonderful street scene with many colors and the diff. directions taking the viewer from a beautiful one object to another.
View up the castle on the hill is in fine contrast to the rest of the picture.
An excellent POV and a superb photojob.

Hello Chris,
This must be the most famous street corner in all of Albania. It's hard to resist for any photographer with such nice buildings and background view.
Greetings from Baku.

Hi Chris,
I think there is never too much photos from Albania, my guess is that there are relatively few photos from this country here, probably not many members living there and not the most touristy location either although I suppose they have a lovely coast so it may soon develop into a holiday destination.
Interesting spot with several streets meeting here and with fantastic view of the castle in the distance.
Great reportage!!

Hello Chris,
If it were not for the Albanian flag hanging from the balcony, I could have sworn this was a touristic Turkish town, probably Alanya. (The flag of the castle is too far, it's just a red spec just like a Turkish flag from this distance.) I like your POV that shows many interesting buildings.
Regards,
MT
