My Holiday Pics - Greece ** 56K Beware

Just returned from my good old yearly holiday, this year it was Greece most of these images from either Rhodes town or Ixia. Picked up a few things while on holiday and also tried a few others out for the first time. Enjoy.

Sky and Clouds


Thats...


Clock Tower


Wall


Managed to see the Rhodes BG Triathlon World Cup, I need to learn panning. Also I set my camera to burst mode and had some fun with it . Only issue it sucks the battery So only half the event.

Cones on the road


Red Runner


Number 15


3 Elements


Many more to come

Re: I am back :: Some Pics

Red Runner and Elements for me. I like the high contrast and colour and the shallow DoF in Red Runner. People nowdays do get the most strangest of tattoos.
BTW, welcome back.

Re: I am back :: Some Pics

Nice attention to detail and good vision to spot some of those pics. I like the close ups of the athletes particularly.

Re: I am back :: Some Pics

One thing I am very happy with is that I managed to use manual focus on my camera to some good effect. On the other hand I never got to try panning. I will keep updating this page over the next few days

2 Examples of manual focus:

New Rope


Old Rope

All of them are great, but I especially like Lindos, Arches, Red Runner and No 15.

Great pics, Good holiday?

Re: I am back :: Some Pics

You've made Lindos look like a minature town! Really like the DoF here.

Re: I am back :: Some Pics

Some pics??.. You mean many pics dont you?..

I detect a "minimalist" style" here seems to work very well, For sure these are not your typical holiday snapshots
I like Last Boy scout and No 15..amongst others. The Arches father and son seem a bit tilted from the horizontal
Really nice bunch all in all
Well done

I don't have a style yet like some others but I do like a minimalist feel to my images. Like you the other half did also say to me recently why don't you do normal holiday images Whats normal ?

Regarding the arches father and sun, the floor runs away from you. So I went for the focus point being level and let the rest be, but after looking again yes your right its not level

Re: I am back :: Some Pics

The last update:

So looking back I spent 2 weeks away and I managed to snap 200+ images of those only around 20 or so stand out from the rest. Below is just an update and all of the sets can be viewed via the collection I have setup

Spire Tower - B&W


Rhodes Space Invader


Closed Window



Thats it for another year


Could a mod please kindly change the title of this to the following: My Holiday Pics - Greece ** 56K Beware

Thank you
