Photographer's Note
When I went on this excursion, on the second week my digital camera broke, so I had to take all my photos with my compact camera and therefore lose the corresponding quality of a digital camera; a real shame for all those incredible places I visited. So I keep scanning them bit by bit to show them, even though it was a while ago I made the journey.
------------------------------------------>
Santorini es todo un maravilla de la naturaleza y del hombre, es un regalo para la vista, su inagotable combinacin de colores y luces es todo un espect當ulo, el azul de sus aguas, el blanco, azul, amarillo de sus fachadas, es un lugar para no perd駻selo, todo un regalo para la vista.
Latitude: 35.25N - Longitude: 25.20E
The world famous island of Santorini is the southern most island of the Cycladic group in the Aegean Sea, and is located 63 nautical miles north of Crete. Its surface area is 73 sq. km. and its population, distributed among thirteen villages, just exceeds thirteen thousand six hundred souls, according to the census of 2001.

Η ΣΑΝΤΟΡΙΝΗ...
Το νησί που τραγούδησαν οι ποιητές.
Μια ιστορία που κρατά περισσότερο από τέσσερεις χιλιάδες χρόνια.
Και ο βράχος που ακόμα ορθώνεται το ίδιο δυνατός μέσα στο πέλαγος, κρατάει καλά φυλαγμένα τα μυστικά της Ατλαντίδας...

A great composition, Jose, with beautiful blue tones. Your 'bird's eye' point of view is just excellent. I like the depth of this shot, it is just incredible. Well done.

A festival of flashy blue colors !
Very graphical, well seen even if I find that the aspect of the sea is a little bit odd.

Hi Jose
You have captured the typical Grecan colours of blue & white. Good contrast, saturation, colour & pov. I like the yellow trim. Buenos!

Hola Jose,
too bad about losing your camera just when beginning such a trip, on the other way you can see this as an opportunity to upgrade ! I've been playing with a Canon A95 compact and comparing it with my Dimage 7, it delivers excellent colors.
The house blue colors are great on your photo, the roof is unfortunately a bit overexposed, I like the stairs on the side, due to the geography, I guess there must be plenty of such stairs in that village !
Have a nice day,
jean-Yves

Bonitos colores y muy buena composicin desde este punto de vista que elegiste. Me trae buenos recuerdos, estos blancos, estos azules, estos ocres... hace unos 5 aos estuve all, y creo que tendr que hacer como tu, escanear las mas bonitas, ya que tambi駭 iba con una c疥ara compacta sencilla. Todava no andaba muy metido en la fotografa. Muy buen trabajo Jose Manuel.

Hello Jose. Too bad about what happened with your camera, but for this one I would say you got a fine quality from the scan. The pastel colors are a standout in this one, and the viewpoint from above gave you a fine graphical quality from the way the architectural elements are arranged. Very pleasant work.

Cuando uno sabe hacer buenas fotos hasta con una Polaroid o el tel馭ono mvil le salen. Y 駸te es el mejor ejemplo de lo que digo, Jos Manuel. Los colores son vivos y atractivos y el punto de vista es estupendo para mostranos todos los detalles de la casa. Me gusta el tejado o azotea blanca y esa escalera que no acabo de entender donde termina.

Hello Jose,
That's incredible to imagine that this is the sea we can see in the background.
The mix of colors is also really good.
Congrats!

Si tu serie de fotos sobre Grecia van a ser todas como estas primeras que has colgado en Internet, esto va a ser un delirio de bonito. Bueno, menos flores y m疽 la grano... Creo que has sabido jugar muy bien con los colores y con la perspectiva, tiene un buena profundidad de campo. Impresionante... Tanto como lo de la nota en griego ソSabes hablar griego? 。Joder, que punto!

Very good composition with amazing colors. Amazing blue, accentuated by the white surfaces and the subtle yellow lines. Only the right part with the green parasol and the red-white tiles could be cropped in my opinion.

vaya coloridoo。。。。 el tono azul es perfecto para la fachada...es una fotografia realmente impactacte y me gusta mucho el enfoque, captandola desde arriba...

There are no proffesionals and non proffesionals photographers.There are good and bad.
Cameras are the tools but you are the master of the game!

Great picture, the composition & colurs are excellent. You explain in your note how your digital camera had broken - but an image like this proves that it's not necessarily the camera but the photographer who really makes a good photo. Well done!

Typical Spanish style. Some of the rural Indian houses looks like this. Especially the white borders on the staircase. Good one.

This is a very nice shot with a perfect composition. If you did not say where, the shot already tells you it has been shot in Greece with the beautiful blue and white balance. Good work. Once again it is always the eye which captures the shot, thus just a compact is as good in the hands of one with a good eye. Cheers,
Alp
