Photographer’s Note
An island in the Cyclades, Mikonos was known for its gay population in the the 80s and 90s. Today it is a large tourist center especially in the months between June and August. The town of Mikonos is quaint with small pedestrians paths winding through a maze of whitewashed houses, shops and restaurants. The island offers some of the most exclusive beaches...Paradise, Platys Gialos and Elia beach. The water is a lovely blue and crystal clear and very warm in the afternoon. Mikonos is a perfect island to sunbathe and experience the quainter, though tourist crowded side of the Greek islands.

Nice photo with nice colours, saturation and composition. However, I see some distracting points. First, some vignettering, I guess, in the lower left corner. Almost at the lower right corner is some bush or part of plant orso, also a bit distracting in my opinion. And maybe the thingy on the far right, just above the middle, on the white building, don't know what it is..
But thanks for sharing this nice view, I'd like to go to Mykonos sometime, maybe next year!
