Seascape in Kyparissos village in Mani, Greece.

This shot was taken today in Kyparissos, a small village in Mani

peninsula in Greece. Kyparissos is built over the ruins of ancient

Kenipolis. Ancient Kenipolis was a religion center during the Roman era,

because it was close to cape Tainaro, where ancient Greeks believed

that are the gates to Hades, the underworld. Nearby was the famous

temple of Poseidon of Tainaro. The city of Kenipolis was destroyed

around 500ac by a strong earthquake. Ruins of the city are still visible

today.

Some ruins caught my eye today in that rock. I don't know if those are

some of the remains of ancient Kenipolis, but anyway they are very old!

The show was taken with a Nikon D300, a 18-200Vr and a Hi-Tech big

stopper. The exposure was 136sec.

Hope you like it!

Great photo. I love the composition and the tones of grey!

Well done!

This shot was taken in Messinia near village Haravgi.
