Nice to be back again after a two month vacation to my motherland the Philippines.

This is a photo of a belltower taken from the top of a mountain in the Island of Thira (Santorini), Village of Oia. I find it interesting because of the harsh sun, the contrast of the roof with the shadow cast on it is like a high contrast film of the old film cameras. I erased the details in the background to make it stand out more. Unfortunately the bells specially the small ones did not show. It almost looks like an architectural study model to me.

Up to now I do not know on what State of Greece the Island of Santorini belongs. If someone knows this please inform me. I chose Kyklades in the list of TL because it is the closest to Cyclades.

Hello Andre,

it's a unusual point of view, but not bad. The bell at the right side looks a little unnatural in that green color.

regards,

Luc.

Hi Andre:
You have done superb at 80mm here...
Excellent use of shadows and light!!!
David

Very nice. Great colour contrasts and shadows. I like the different angle.
