Donkey Patience Photo

Photographer’s Note

This photo is taken in a village on Mount Parnonas in Greece. The life and time goes on slowly up there. Quite diferent from the kind of live we are used to in modern cities.

Hi Nikolaos,
A very fine picture of daily life here! This is also a fine composition and a photo of very good colours. How many bags can a donkey carry?
Kind regards
Gunnar

the power to carry enormous loads of small, old ladies is second only to the same power of donkeys :) it's amazing what those animals can take, like in this shot - you can barely see the donkey behind the load. I like a lot this scene of daily life, I think you've found the best way to describe it - "life and time goes slowly". great shot, Nikolaos, I like it a lot.

best,
Kristine
