Photographer's Note

Simple view of Tulcea, the citty from DANUBE river, image made on my short trip therre.
Tulcea was founded in the 7th century BC under the name of Aegyssus, mentioned in the documents of Diodorus of Sicily (3rd century BC). Ovid referred to it in Ex Ponto, saying that its name would have originated with that of its founder, a Dacian named Carpyus Aegyssus.the second largest river delta in Europe, after the Volga Delta
Now, that citty is the point to Danube Delta,
