This is from old parts of the Thira town, people actually live there. .n

...I like the composition of this. It's bit blurry due crappy scanner. Like with all of these images. .n

Sundown from our balcony. .n

And beach bum, me! There where lots of fishes and few octopus in this deserted beach. One of the best diving places in whole Santorini island. .n

...and again, me. Those houses are fascinating there. But well, they don't have to stand -35 degrees in wintertimes. AND I know, some of you don't have to stand this either, esp you Jovan. Damn you, damn you all!!!11 *grin* .n

And finally, last scan I have now. Strange lava sand cliffs. Local people had burrowed their homes into these walls. And actually lived there nowdays too. "Mom, I wanna my own room! Where's the shovel?" .n

The third one is spectacular! I always like light beams through clouds.

Awesome stuff!!

I say Niko is that a camera in your hand or were you just pleased to see us LOL Like the cliff shot can we get some sort of scale for it? :O)

Admit it you want to live in Greece. I agree the houses look pretty compfy. Bsteph

Stars, that dribble suites you. :o) Snapzie, LOL ..lets keep that just between you and me. :oD ...those cliffs where size of big building, don't have better pic. But there where places where cliffs was about hundred meters(~300ft) high. And take a wild quess did I forgot my cam to hotelroom in just that day. I did. .n

my slight preference would be to underexpose all these by an eigth, but that could v easily be the scanner, and its just personal anyway. 3 and 6 are my favourites, i particularly like the shading on 6, and the translucency of the clouds on 3, as it gives them volume, when so many clouds look flat in photos.

underexpose all these by an eigth Sorry I'm confused here.....an eighth of what? Never heard of eighths being used in reference to exposure before. Unless is some sort of developing/zone system term?

uuuggghhh sorry. thats a quirk from my particular camera/light meter combination. i mean by a little bit :) an eighth means (to me) decrease the apature by half a stop (you cant actually do this on many newer lenses). i am well aware that thats not the correct way to say it - sorry. i have odd equipment and it was late :)

LOL! I thought that might be what you meant but I'm only familiar with whole, 1/2, and 1/3 stop increments.... Cool....thanks for clarifying!

np - must read up on these correct terms as i always confuse people like that. its so long since i did anything formal i cant really remeber the right words. oh well.

Wow! Sounds like a good technical discussion!
