Summer Time II Photo

Photographer’s Note

Voidokilia, which means Ox's belly, owes its name to its shape.

Big dunes surround the bay at Voidokilia and protect it from the harsh winds. Paleokastro -enetian castle- is situated on the southern side of the bay.

Some info from www.messinia-guide.gr

Voidokilia is definitely the most popular beach in Messinia. Like a water theater, it consists of an almost perfectly round bay of fine sand, which closes inside it crystal clear turquoise waters. Near the beach a big rock offers shade. The area is considered of archaeological interest, so it has remained intact by civilization. There is a relievingly quiet atmosphere, despite the people who visit the beach. You can go there through Petrochori by covering some metres of dirt road, until you reach the beach where there is usually parking space.

Χριστιάννα γειά σου,
πολύ ωραίο καλοκαιρινό στιγμιότυπο με εξαιρετικό φωτισμό και χρώματα.Πολυεπίπεδη φωτογραφία με την ανθρώπινη παρουσία να της δίνει ζωή.Η παραλία φαίνεται χωρίς πολύ κίνηση,είναι αλήθεια; ή τους έβγαλες έξω από το κάδρο;

Σε χαιρετώ,Δάνος

Wonderful one, Christianna!
I love the sharp contrast between the deep blues and the intensely saturated colors of those umbrellas.
Ciao,
Fulvio.
