ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Santorini, Greece: The northern city of Oia is actually quite crowded with tourists, but it's possible to crop them out with some work. Previous visual simplicity on a European rooftop here on this site.

haven't been there in many years, your photos took me back. so beautiful, thank you.
Very beautiful pictures, especially the last one!
In the second picture it is the (orthodox) Aghios Nikolaos, or Saint Nicolaos, who is thought as the Patron Saint of the sailors, fishermen and all people of the sea in general.
Since we have all these islands, in most of them you can find many big or little churches in his honour.
(Well, I thought you might find some background information interesting:)
These are wonderful. Lovely. :)
My favorite is the 2nd to last and last photo. It looks so bright there, was it difficult to not get blown out shots?
Very nice work!
Great set of images. Love the steps in the last image.
I think this would be heaven for me. I noticed recently that my favorite photos have an inordinate amount of blue in them. I'd be able to point my camera in any direction and be happy.
nice set. i am particularly fond of #3.
This is a beautiful set. Love the minimalism.
3 & 7 are very beautiful !
