Ciao cara Ioanna,
una immagine molto bella dalla tua stupenda Grecia, dove il blu e il bianco ricordano i colori della bandiera del tuo Paese. Bellissima la dissolvenza tra il mare e il cielo, quasi a fondersi insieme. Apprezzo molto la tua bravura nel gestire il bianco delle case senza la minima traccia di sovraesposizione. Veramente brava!
Ciao, ti auguro un buon giovedì!
Paolo

Hello Ioanna,
greek islands seem so beautiful!
I like how it's hard to distinguish between sky and sea at the horizon.
Do you think waiting like 30 minutes would have gotten rid of this strong shadow down left?
see you,
Marc
