Thanks to everyone who gave me lens advice for my jaunt along the 1000 year old Roman aqueduct in the South of France. The photos don't do the engineers justice - they calculated a 12 metre drop over 50 kilometres over ravines and round hills.

Camera: Fuji X-T1, lens Fuji XF 10 - 24, mostly shot at the 24 end. Light fantastic (!) thanks to a strong Mistral.

Great shots, and info.! My son just studied those in his 9th grade history class. Those Romans were amazing! (I Wonder why Italy is not called "Romania"?
