Santorini ....
the epitome of the architecture of the arch
Deftly hanging from the rock face
Or lapping at the Aegean ....
.... often interrupting and softening
.... and challenging the view!
It demands attention
.... creates drama
.... framing from within
and framing from without!
o
The architecture of the arch ....
.... forms simple lines
.... joyfully plays with light and shade
... and is visually,
such a pleasure!
You always talk about the light in Greece, and now I see!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Memories.

It's my pleasure Jeanne - I always love writing about Greece - it makes my heart sing! F xx
Deletefabulous images and I see why the arch fascinates us, we had a vaulted ceiling at Borga Nari and I couldn't imagine how the owners made such a thing. See you in a few days, can't wait! ciao lisa x
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful and cheering! The first shot is amazing. Reminds me a little of Matera in southern Italy but without the sea. Lovely accompanying words too xcat
