The Orange Vase

Back to sea, here's a shot that definitely belongs to my favorite shots from Greece! It is taken in Fira, the main city on Santorini. On the far right in the background there's the city of Oia (pictures coming soon!) and on the left one sees the island Therasia. While I usually would have cursed the cloud that was diffusing the sunlight, I'm really happy with it in this pictures: It gave me nice soft shadows that perfectly fit this scene!

For post-processing I applied some perspective transformations together with a radial exposure correction, resulting in vignetted corners but a brighter center. I also removed some unwanted "details" for giving this picture an almost surreal and abstract touch.

Browse the images on this site by clicking on one or more tags. When clicked, a tag becomes active (or inactive). Active tags will restrict the thumbnails on the bottom of this popup to images that have all of the currently active tags assigned. A tag that is assigned to the image currently visible is shown with a  blue background . Tags will be grayed out if none of the currently selected images have that tag assigned. Tags with a serif font designate an image gallery, i.e. images that are related to each other because they were e.g. taken during the same trip.
