A Few Images From Greece

2007-08-31T09:42:00.000-05:00

This was one of the most beautiful of the 770 photo's that I took in Greece. This was of a small church on a small fortified island in the Aegean Sea. I sent this photo to the Courier Journal and it was published in the Travel section on June 29th. Needless to say I was excited about that.

This photo is of one of the many beautiful vistas. In the very bottom of this valley is cultivated olive groves. In the far distance is a finger of the Aegean Sea, and at the waters edge is a small town. It's hard to believe but this was taken from our restaurant window.

This is the Parthenon as it looks today. We've all seen pictures in books of the great structures of the world and we expect them to look that way when we get there, which is seldom the case. Notice the scaffoling all around the structure. All ancient structures such as this are in a constant state of repair due to air pollution.

I was in Greece recently on vacation and wanted to post a few pictures to illustrate what the country was like. The picture at left I wanted to insert because in the background can be seen the dry vegetation, which is mainly untended olive trees. If you've seen the news lately about Greece, this and other scrub brush is what's burning throughout the country.This image is of the Temple of the Oracles at Delphi. The site of the original Olympics.

This is the first posting to this blog. I am not going to say that I will post something new to this blog daily, but I'll try to keep it fresh.

The intent of this blog is to highlight some of the photo's that I've take at mostly athletic events throughout the area. I'll add some photo's from some of my other photographer friends if they want to post.

I'll also add some photography related links that I've found usefull.

I want to also keep everyone up to date on what the local camera club is doing so folks can come and join us, we've had some excellent speakers in the past.
