A very different time...

...with loved ones,

light and laughter and sharing

with friends in Molivos...

* 

Stealing some time from my friends...

...it is all about Mammon and the Mountain,

looking them up,

when they have a spare and a rare minute free,

hardworking people,

every day of the week,

catching a few is a rare occasion...

*

Aesthetics for an atheist...

...indoors, outdoors,

always simplicity mixed,

with shining symbols

from angels and saints

to house hold goods,

hard not to be deeply moved,

  always leaving an imprint...

*

Come rain and come shine...

...a hesitant Summer,

coming closer to blooming,

flashes of visits 

to beloved and familiar places,

under incredible skies,

on the island of islands...

*

Same places, new light...

...and cannot count how many times

I have taken the same motifs

but always with different light,

light is what matters

through shades and colors

and never getting tired of variations...

iPhone X 

Kostas, The Curator...

...knowing more

of the art of the olive,

from the care of the tree,

opening the branches to the light of the sun,

conquering the κλαδί,

that bastard branch,

to harvesting the virgin,

than anyone I met,

from a to z...

*

Babbis, The Stoker...

   

...all shapes and sizes of sticks and branches,

collected and on the fire,

the smell and sound exciting,

all by The Stoker Man 

in total silence...

* 

Coffee for three...

...leaning a bit

to trunks of olive trees,

sipping coffee with friends,

to prepare for their trimming

of branches and sticks,

for light to come in,

giving fruit for next year's harvesting

of golden fluid...

* 

One hundred thousand three hundred and eighteen visits later...

...from twenty-two different countries,

can hardly believe it,

a border crossed yesterday,

and wandered through photos at random,

just took a very few that made me smile,

at the very moment of Now,

and thanks to all of you who are paying a visit

 to imprints of mine,

and mostly from the island of islands...
