travel - greece - crete [velvia] The Mosque of the Janissaries, Hania and The Lefka Ori (White Mountains) beyond

This ancient mosque dates from the Turkish occupation of Crete. It is a splendid squatt

structure, which dominates the harbour of this wonderful little city on the Greek island of

Crete. Any comments, suggestions or critiques are most welcome - thanks, Nick.

Splendid! Thanks.

Nice photo... simple but nice. What about b&w? Nice place Hania .. I would like to be there for some days.

Thanks Denis.

 

Thanks Vasilis. I know what you mean, this is little more than a holiday snap, but I thought it quite a pleasing one.

 

I thought about Black & White, and as you can see, the mountains come off quite well, but the textures and colours of the town and the lovely pink of the mosque are quite lost!

 

Regards, Nick.

I like the backdrop of snowy mountains & the foreground of mosque & the buzzle of activities alonf the waterfront. Nothing's wrong with holiday snap shots as it keeps one's fond memories.

You are right and actually using velvia and then turning to B&w, is kind of ironic. :-)

Wonderful colour and composition, What a differance Velvia makes, Especially to ones ego! Nice shot. 6/5

Hania in velvia looks lovely. My sister lived and in hania many moons ago i made a couple of visits back in 1987.One day i shall return.

as for you spending far too much money on far too many rolls of film,and owning far too many cameras! me too buddy!
