Photographer's Note
A family (not tourists but living on Leros for a couple of years now) going down the old street joining Platanos and Ayia Marina.
When I decided to post this picture I asked for and got their permission.
Thank you for visiting, a great weekend to all:)

Hello Ourania,
This gives really a very good image of the life and streets in Leros.
You chose the perfect angle this care for depth and perspective.
Also a wonderful panoramic view about these area.
Light management is very well, colours are pleasant a excellent moment for look at.
Excellent captured and composed, TFS.
Have a nice weekend,
John

Not tourists, but also not Greek. That's how it is these days, borders mean less and less unless it's some hot spot with hot headed people. I love the cats- now they're local and blend well with the colours of the buildings.A lovely POV and beautiful ambiance. Best wishes Ourania. Klaudio.

Kalimera Ourania,
This family probably left their hometown elsewhere and came to live on an island with sunny days and constant sea wind. They probably know to distinct the differences from other places.
Fine down the alley picture, I like the blue and baige colors mingling on the houses. Good clarity and light managed.
Enjoy a nice weekendd,
Ike

Hello Ourania,
The little family group bring an otherwise quiet scene to life and very well included. I like the point of view and the light, which helps bring out the detail in the architecture to good effect.

Hello Ourania,
This is very nice view of the narrow street surrounded by attractive houses and the mountains further back. The family add a degree of charm and intimacy which greatly increases the joy of watching the photo. The colours and clarity are perfect, absolutely not too dark :-). It's a genuinely pleasant picture.
Kind regards,
Gert
PS Thank you so much for spending so much time looking at my older pictures. It feels great that they get a new lease of life on your monitor.

Ciao Ourania,
ti devo fare doppi complimenti: per le tue foto e per il tuo eccellente italiano.
Questa foto è molto gradevole perchè permette di entrare nella vità di questa località, tra abitanti del luogo e gatti che li osservano, il tutto in una composizione nella quale domina la semplicità.
E' ammirevole anche la tua percezione della privacy, considerando che la famiglia l'hai ripresa di spalle, ma evidentemente hai una sensibilità diversa da quella corrente ed anche per questo ti faccio i miei complimenti.
Ciao e buon fine settimana
Romano

Ciao Ourania
condivido quello che hai fatto, anche se le persone sono viste da dietro. Anche io mi chiedo sempre se è giusto mostrare persone, a parte se sono conoscenti e consenzienti.
Una bella foto, vicolo vecchio e genitori moderni, con i loro zaini.
Saluti

Hello Ourania.
I like this narrow lane with the local walking down the old street. If you did not mention, I would have guessed that they are tourists with day-packs on their backs. This is beautiful daily life scene and the place looks clean and peaceful.
Thanks and have a great week ahead.

Hello Ourania - There is a wonderful laid-back, slow-paced atmosphere to this shot, the buildings have an attractive rustic look and the two cats add to the charm of the scene. A wonderful place for a stroll and so beautifully presented. Warm regards rosemary

Leros ed il fascino dei luoghi.
Turismo primaverile ...il più bello per "raccogliere" i silenzi ed i profumi.
L'ora è quella del lavoro e del precedere il pranzo .
Emozionante composizione dentro la vita.

Ciao Ourania,
ho scelto questa tua foto perchè nel mio modo di vedere la fotografia la presenza umana se non indispensabile è fondamentale....quasi sempre...
bella nitida l'immagine e con una meravigliosa luce, mi piace l'atosfera di quiete che emana la tua foto, ottima l'inquadratura e profondità...
un caro saluto...

Hi Ourania
This is an expectly exposed back alley for highlights as necessary here and the presence of the obligatory figures at the third have brought some live. There is a lot of detail here which is nicely revealed by a shadow/highlight, as it is it's a backstreet shot of exactly that and I like it~ that's what makes them inherently what they are. Importantly you've captured the right atmosphere that possess a unique character worth exploring and this improves the shot dramatically. The pleasing natural colors blend very well of a very appealing image with special charm. Real cool! Well spotted and presented. Congrats, TFS
Warm regards

Hi Ourania,
Very nice street scene. I value such scenes more than shots of famous sights. The famous sites have been photographed by many and I'm sure I've seen it all. Little corners of the world like this one deserve more publicity.
Regards,
