Poseidons' Kingdom Photo

Photographer’s Note

Poseidon is an essential character in the study of Greek mythology.
He is the famous God of the sea. Son of Kronos and Rheia, brother of Zeus, Hades, Hestia. Poseidon is one of the six original Olympians. His mission is to give voice to the earth. Poseidon was commonly called the earth shaker and the earth encircler in The Iliad and The Odyssey of Homer.
His kingdom is the vast sea which he has populated with creatures of his own design. He rides the waves in a chariot drawn by dolphins but, curiously enough, his most honored creation is the horse.

What beautiful colours in the ocean Sifis. I like your perspective. The housing area looks kinda new, is it tourist area or a housing subdivision?

Nice shot.

Beautiful perspective overlooking the town and the sea. The scenery is wonderful the dof and the light are great and the colours are superb, particularly the turquoise blue sea. Well done!

Lovely place. And with this photo, looks very nice. The composition, the colours and the contrast is much more than right.
Thanks for share.

Hi Sifis, this is a beautiful pano! I like the demi cirkel the coastline makes, the clear urban structure and the lush colours. The gradients in the sea are definetily a bonus. Very fine job & thanx for the informative note too.
Best regards from Rotterdam, Bert.
