"when sea has a deep blue colour,waters are very deep"

This is what our parents told us when we where kids during the summer vacations so we stayed close to the sea side.


i remembered this driving to Trikeri and looking this bay where we used to swim in our childhood.


surely,waters ain't that deep it's just the wonderful Aegean blue

Wish an amusing WE to all

eye catching blue tone, deeply
and amazingly beautiful, the reflection

Bonjour Kostas,

Quelle merveille ce bleu et dans la mer et dans les fenêtres.
Et beau contraste avec le rouge des toits.

Salutations,
Léonce.

Kostas,

The blues of your photo are so intense. I like how the shutters of the house compliment the color of the sea. The orange of the roof and the stones and land add a nice division between the blues in the photo. Very eye appealing. Lisa

Hello Kostas,
The blues are mighty fine, a true Greek hue. An attractive photo with superb water reflection and shimmer. The composition, minimal pp work, and framing ought to be commended. regards...
Danilo

Hello Kostas,
Again an artistic work. Like an oil painting. Perfect rippless and amazing blue and white harmony

Like this typical kind of Greek postcards back in the 80s,with blue and white in it,the moving water is making the reflection even more exiting than normal.

Hello Kostas
Great image and a very well composed photo with a fantastic light, sharpness, and colours.

Hello Kostas,in the U.K. we call this shade of blue 'royal blue',do you call it that too?
A fantastic shot with the buildings perfectly placed in the composition.
Excellent reflections with the added bonus of the rippling water.Plus red roofs to add some contrast to the blue.
It looks very hot.
Tfs, regards Jean.
