Very nice subtle colours Ron, what a pity about the stripey pole!

I did a McCurry and it is gone now.

Great shot - conjures up a lot of things in the one image. Of course, each viewer will likely conjure different things relevant to them.

Thank you.  It's vague, that's what I wanted.

You say 'vague', Mongo says capable of broad interpretation - same thing. It may have something for everyone who views it.

Brilliant Ron, turns the photo into a very serene shot, super! To my eyes it's obvious why the chapel was put there!

The town, Oia, is built on a narrow strip of land that is a cliff on this side.  You should go there.

Thank you Akira.

That's  an impressive fore-and background with some mystical effects. Like the match in the blue colours.
