Allow me to share some of my favourite shots from Santorini.
Greece: Santorini, Blue
We saw some green, now back to blue. Also, the first sight of one (of many) famed blue-domed churches in Santorini! And one of my favourite things to shoot, clothes on a clothes line.
May: Art to Inspiration
YES! It's time for another installment of Art to Inpsiration, folks!
This month, we're looking at Echoes of Fragrant Voice by Jo Howe
What an interesting piece of work! Abstract and minimalist, with just two shades, light and dark. Which is very much what I look for in subject matter, as a photographer. Lightness and darkness together creating shape, and you need one shape to highlight the other.
In breaking this beautiful work into basic shapes of light and dark, I was then inspired by my own minimalist photograph taken in Santorini. Light and dark working in harmony.

Greece: Santorini, Chair

Have a happy weekend no matter how many chairs you have.
Greece: Santorini, Boys
Here's looking at you, kids.
Greece: Santorini, A Gander
Literally within seconds of putting our luggage down at our hotel, we were off to explore the island that is Santorini. Here's what we found along the way.
Greece: Santorini, Sunny Villas
What's it like living in a cave, you ask?
I was dying to stay at Sunny Villas after my endless research on hotels in Santorini. The idea of staying in a CAVE was appealing. In real life, it was a difficult hotel to get to, but I imagine many of the hotels on Santorini to be the case, as the town is built on the side of a volcanic caldera, not to be confused with a crater. And it's STEEP, y'all! Hotel Sunny Villas had incredible caldera and sunset views from the terrace, but the actual cave-like habitat was rather claustophobic, for us. Still, it was incredible to be situated right in front of the Skaros rock, which used to be a medieval fortress, that we hiked on the last day of our trip (more on that later). For now, this.
