[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
At the tip of the Kanoni peninsula a footpath descends to the Vlacherna Monastery, a tiny island linked to the shore by a causeway.
The causeway is the mooring point for a number of small boats which will take you to Mouse Island (Pontikonissi) where you can visit the Byzantine Church of Pantokrator. The combined picture of Kanoni, Vlacherna and Pontikonissi has become the trademark of the whole island, and has been photographed, perhaps, by just about every camera in the world.

Buna Raluca,
Vad ca ai fost in vacanta :)

Hallo Raluca,

Superb photo of this Beautiful landscape! The composition is great! Colors are brilliant and make a nice contrast. Sharpness is excellent. I booked a reservation in Corfu for end august so thanks for introducing me to the holiday atmosphere. Great job! Thanks!

Regards,

Chiar eca este precum o carte postala ! Uimitoare captura a imaginii ai facut .

That's a nice postcard shot, good POV and the rightb framing ...

Amazing shot, Raluca! You got a wonderful POV, used your lens perfectly. And the place is magnificent by its own.

Congratulations on this wonderful shot!

Very nice morning capture of this undoubtely romantic spot. Hmmm, I guess I will have to go there too, so that your statement that every camera in the world was there becomes true.
Regards, Peter

Hi Raluca,
Lovely view here, looks like you have been on a high PoV overlooking the bay, as a result you get a far ranging view with good depth from the plans succession, the appropriate vertical framing adds well to it, the foreground walkway leading to the church is an excellent first plan and flashes due to the well exposed whites. Only thing to mention is the cut boat on the right that you could clone. Not too bad, I like this view.
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Raluca, the title is perfecet here...
the image seems really a postcard...well taken and with a good view..
well done!
ciao!
Valeria
