Photographer's Note
The colours and atmosphere of the town of Symi, a little picturesque and idyllic Greek Island haven of the same name. This small island is part of the Dodecanese chain and lies just 41km north west of Rhodes where one can get a ferry boat out to this beautiful place.
I apologise for the necessity to watermark my images; I am trying to make it as discreet as possible. But in recent weeks I have discovered that some of my images posted on TE have been hi-jacked and are now being used promotionally on other websites, without my permission. I like this site and want to continue posting so this is the only way I can see to perhaps discourage this problem.

Ciao Brian,
questo posto è meraviglioso con le case che ricordano con la loro architettura i templi greci.
Belli anche gli stupendi colori delle loro facciate, mentre un taglio deciso in verticale, ti ha permesso di fare una bella composizione.
Complimenti.
Ciao e auguri di una buona Pasqua

Hello Brian,
Greece must have some of the most photogenic architecture in the world, and the photos you've made from there are always a pleasure to look at. This is a really lovely shot of this beautiful island of Dodekanisos, showing the amazing architectonic character of theses houses with their delightful shapes and wonderful luminescent colours. I like the intimate atmosphere of the village and the wonderful light that is so nicely illuminating this scenery. The vertical format was a very good choice to put the emphasis on the houses stacked one behind the other. The overall visual result is quite attractive. Great quality image as always.
Have a nice weekend.
Christian

Hello Brian,
A magnificent view with all the front facades directed into the same direction, that of the sea and the camera.
The design of each building is very similar but there are nice colour differences and we also find different patterns and decorations.
Also nice are those rough, steep cliffs next to the houses.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Brian
this one is much different from your usual Greece scenes. but its still very much a top notch photo.
We've seen many of these styles on TE from this location, many that have blown out white light - but not yours. Light and colors are superb.
looking at the overall scene, i'd love to see a collage format too.
enjoy your w/e

Hello Brian,
if you are tempted to come Lefkada because of my photos I have to say I am truly considering going to Dodekanisos to see the places you have posted :-) These islands are so different from mine that it will feel like going abroad.
From what I see also the architecture has different style - and I like tight framing here very much. Amazing colors of the walls and sky. Very good light management.
Thanks for sharing

Hello Brian,
I think it´s hard to imagine more picturesque location for a village- nestled among the rocky hills and the sea.It´s just like your wrote-idyllic and where life goes peaceful and slow.Just love all these bright and vivid color you were able to bring out.
Magnificent composition!
Happy Easter

Ces façades variées et colorées, accrochées à la colline, sont très belles et parfaitement éclairées. Tu en as réalisé une très belle photo avec une excellente composition verticale.

Hello Brian
Oh well, beautiful Greece, how would I love to sit on one of these terraces now with a good glass of wine and maybe a grilled fish fresh from today's catch. (We woke up this morning with fresh snow in our garden)
A real postcard scene of a greek island village with superb colors and a great clarity.
happy easter

Hi Brian,
I know that "beautiful" is cliche...but what can I say, this really is just that, beautiful! The clarity in your images is outstanding, which I think gives everything added precision. This is certainly no exception, the colors are vibrant and the light exquisite. I love the vertical composition for something like this, the stacked layers really work to your advantage. Very picturesque image, I bet the local tourist board would enjoy this one as well! Have a great week ahead.
All the best,
Jason
