temple of Serapis Helios, Miletus
Only the pediment of the temple of Serapis Helios can be seen in Miletus (Milet in modern day Turkey). In the centre of the pediment is a carving of the sun which symbolises the god Serapis (an Egyptian deity).
In the distance at the back of the photo can just be seen the vegetation-covered dome of the 15th century Ilyas Bey mosque, which is topped with a stork's nest.
