“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs .
When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence” Ansel Adams

Ready for the Close-up

Getting closer and closer
A little more closer
Almost close enough
For an object to touch
But wait, time to hesitate
The cactus with mighty thorns
May your fingers scorn
Before you loose
Better choose…

Ready for the Close-up

Before you loose
Better choose
The creamy strawberries
With their pals blueberries
A tasty treat
Without any meat
Some eye candy to complete
With a red amaryllis ever so sweet

Favourite Photo Friday

The highest tower
Like a tall flower
The setting sun deflecting
Last rays on metal reflecting
Silver, yellow and red
Nothing more to be said
This most gorgeous vision
Selection done by decision
For your viewing pleasure
So, do, value this treasure

How to choose a favourite
Do I even dare of it?
I love all “my offspring”
From early morning
To late of the night
I keep up the good fight
For my photographs
What more could I ask

Kardamena Village; here we come!

img_3571

As we arrived in the quaint little fishing village, we were greeted by the hustle and bustle of the villagers and tourists alike. Many a shops selling products from near and far. Knickknacks and touristy stuff among local produce, such as sponges and luffas. Wine and Olive Oil but also fine jewelry.

After a busy morning spent in the shops, lunch in the many restaurants by the beach boulevard was a welcome break. After a heavy duty fish related meal, ice coffee with small sugary pasties and then back on the road for a little sightseeing before heading back.

All and all, a day well spent, with plenty of memories accumulated in forms of tale and picture snaps! Definitely something to “instagram” back home 😉

“Good morning campers!
Today we have a special trip booked just for you!”

“Where are we going?”

“Our ship is set to sail, towards the Kos Island and namely, the village of Kardamena.
So hold on to your hats and let the winds be on our backs!”

“Never been there!”

“Me neither: hope they have some coffee there, because I just managed one cup at breakfast!”

“Sure they do: There are many many wonderful cafes by the seashore!”
