I agree with Dubravko's comment :-)

The image plays with the viewer, at least in this virtual space where we first get to see only the thumbnail with the title: first the title directs the viewer's mind onto these historical ruins, and suddenly as the full image loads, those ruins are deemphasised by the unexpected use of focus. I like that.

I also like how the focus has neutralised the tourists who seem to be present in several parts of the scene. Making their figures almost unrecognisable has made the scene very peaceful.

The sky is a bit too white for my taste - I would prefer at least a hint of detail. If some detail is available on the negative, burning the sky might help to bring it out. If not, I would consider using a simple black frame for the photo to separate the white sky from the surrounding white area.
