I can’t believe it’s almost February, time really flies! This is the last day of the January edition of Kim’s challenge Themes by the month. The topic for January was Shadows; I wonder what the new topic will be.
These glass domes cover the open-air museum of the ruins of the Ancient Thracian and Roman city in Sofia, Bulgaria. It’s not a surprise that there are many Roman remains in Sofia: around 29 B.C., the city was conquered by the Romans and renamed Ulpia Serdica. It became a municipium (centre of an administrative region) during the reign of Emperor Trajan (98-117). Later, Serdica became the capital of the province of Dacia Mediterranea.
The glass domes are 2.1 meters high and 60 meters long. Their thickness is about 1.7 cm, and they should be able to sustain a weight of 250 kg. The total area of the domes is about 800 square meters.

Lovely photograph there Ellie, January has been a tough month for me emotionally losing two of my loved ones, but it has been okay for me.

Two family deaths. Glad to say goodbye to January.
I am so sorry for your loss.
That is a wonderful photo. It is the kind of place where I would want to sit back and watch the sky on a windy or rainy day.
Thank you very much for your kind words!
January as other months had a mix but that is how I like my months to be.
Finding the balance is important, glad to hear you succeed!
Great shot, it looks unique. I experienced some very enjoyable moments in January and also some unpleasant moments.
Thank you very much! That’s how life is.
Beautiful photo. Some things happened this month that were not great but overall it was good.
Thank you so much! I am glad that the good overweighs the bad.
