Play it safe

in Black And White2 months ago


The sky is dark, a reddish dark, the one caused by the dessert sand, travelling all the way from Africa to Europe. The south wind is furious, the trees are moving in a frantic dance, like they are about to start walking like eerie entities. Plastic bags and lost laundry are flying in the air. The temperature is over 30ºC (86ºF) and walking outdoors is quite a challenge.

Definitely not a day for photography, nor for wandering around. Myself I decided to play it safe and stay inside, editing a few pictures from last month that had remained in my hard drive, patiently waiting for their turn to be posted and seen!

The location is Nafplio, a small seaside town in Greece with many attractions and beauty. The pictures are taken during a walk from the old centre to the port and the coastal road. As for the date, it is March 5th, a month ago, on a brilliant spring day.

Nothing like the sandy hell that April was saving for us!

Windows have always been a favourite subject for my pictures. And this town has many beautiful windows!

And wonderful view to look at, when you open them :)

The Venetian fortress on a small islet, in the entrance of the port is a landmark for the town and apparently a nice view for the ambulance driver during his rest brake :)

This is my entry for the #monomad challenge.

The camera that I used is a Canon EOS 850D with an EF-S 18-135mm lens attached. I edited the photographs in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Classic


All the pictures and the words are mine.

You got some great shots here @fotostef Very varied and with good compositions. Windows are one of my favorite subjects as well and for this kind of shots I always choose black and white.

I hope the weather improves and all that heat and sand problem so you can get out and take new photos.

I loved them all. Have a great day my friend 👏🏻🖤

the architecture of greece is just beautiful, i want to visit it one day!

I hope you do, as soon as possible!

I want to visit Venezuela too :)

Amazing, #1 is gorgeous!

Thank you, I like it too :)

Something similar happens to me with windows, they are a source of inspiration. I congratulate you for your pictures, it certainly looks like a beautiful city and a nice spring day. I hope the problem of the desert sand ends soon, or is not too hard. Best regards

Thank you very much Kiki, I am glad you enjoyed them! The sand is already gone and the sky is clear once more! Those incidents are very intense but fortunately brief.

Have a lovely day!

Καλέ όταν άρχισα να διαβάζω την πρώτη παράγραφος νόμιζα ότι μίλαγες για εδώ, την La Victoria 🤭🤭🤭, η ζέστη, ο δυνατός αέρας που τα παίρνει και τα κουνάει όλα και η σκόνη της Σαχάρας 🥴🌬️🥵😂😂😂😂

Winston Churchill? 🤔🤣🤣🤣

Απ'ότι φαίνεται η Αφρικανική σκόνη πάει παντού!
Όπως και ο δυνατός αέρας :)
