SimiTrips
Simi Greece has a color sense that can teach the "Painted Ladies" of San Francisco a thing or two. View large as always! interesting how these old buildings seem to pick up "similar patinas"
Red sky at night
Just back from a two week visit to the island of Rhodes in the Dodecanese, Greece.
This long exposure shot was taken on the beach near our hotel in the resort of Ixia.
Flamingo parade
From Salonica group photographic walk to delta of Axios river.
Axios delta is a biotope, hosting several species of birds.
View Large
Well, taking this shot, I stand some 100-150 m long from the birds, using a Sigma lens, full zoom 300mm. So, I use ISO 1600 to have a speed 1000, f/16 to be sure about sharpness and focus after cropping.
But, I have exactly the same shot, taken with my Sony H9, ISO 100. No significant difference, because of build-in stabilizer! Incredible?

Mal du Départ
Κι εγώ που τόσο επόθησα μια μέρα να ταφώ
σε κάποια θάλασσα βαθειά στις μακρινές Ινδίες,
θα 'χω ένα θάνατο κοινό και θλιβερό πολύ
και μια κηδεία σαν των πολλών ανθρώπων τις κηδείες.
