Very nice. I wouldn't fancy cycling up that hill in the second one though!
I used to come here a lot.

As I'm here....

Last summer, I'd bought a new lens and took it to some local castle ruins to try it out. As I was huffing and puffing up a tight stone spiral staircase in a tower something made me jump and I managed to point the camera and hit the shutter. No photoshopping here, just a really lucky shot:




Wow !  great lucky shot Dave  :cheers:

This year we stay in Greece (after a terrorist attack and a military coup where we would be going, next might be a 7 Richter scale earthquake from the Anatolian Fault).

For those of you who aren't coming in Greece (Hellas) for your vacations, a few pics that will make you reconsider.

Corinth Canal



Zante, Navagio beach


Meteora



Mt Athos



Santorini



Melos



Athens



Thessaloniki


Rhodes



Nauplio



Corfu



Chios, Anavatos



Hermoupolis, Syros



Edessa


Delphoi



Olympia



Vergina



Cnossos, Crete



Vistonida



Prespes



Matala, Crete, Hippies never die



Much more to discover. Don't forget that: Ouzo is better without water, Tsipouro (Rake- Tsikoudia) is equally good, Retsina is only for Greeks but we have nice wines (the island whites come from antiquity, the reds are French varieties) and beers of Bavarian heritage (try our Weiss). Metaxa from 7 stars and up.



Don't make them think you are tourists. And to avoid that, strictly NEVER EVER wear this combination!



Have a good summer everybody, wherever you are (unless you are down under, in which case have a nice winter or come here ASAP).

I haven't been to Greece for a while, but it was a favourite destination for us when the kids were a bit younger.

The Corinth Canal is on my bucket list :)

None of these pictures was mine. Just internet pics. I have my own pics, taken with plain still cameras on film and digital, but very few on my tablet and far from artistic. Here I am in Rhodes.

I have only been to Corfu,  but I sure thought Greece was beautiful!

Some fab pics folks. :salute:

Here's one to prove that:

a) I really did see a dolphin while on holiday in Northern Ireland

b) I'm crap at wildlife photography. ;)



I'll now admit that I didn't actually know it was there until after I'd taken this shot. :whistle:  Moments after this I heard it blow and got to watch it for a few minutes as it came to the surface, but I couldn't time it for a better shot than this. :-[

It actually seemed calm.  I had to get close to get a decent pic, and he didn't seem to care.  He did move once I got even closer though.

No, that one wasn't.  I used my iPhone for that one.
