Skopelos

Skopelos
SPC Roofs. A fleeting memory of the beautiful Greek Island of Skopelos from my trip here in 2012. Taken from our small tourist ship, arriving from Skiathos. All these wonderful buildings are looking over the gorgeous bay. A town of hundreds of churches that were once used as protection from pirates.
Enjoy full size on black.

Amazing! Such an huge number of buildings packed in a small space.........with hardly a person in sight..!! I love the red terracotta roof tiles too.

What a fantastically difficult jig-saw puzzle this would make!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thanks Keith. It was a great place for sure. There were people roaming the streets though and at the little harbour too. Yes, the red roofs are a photographers gift. Aye, it would make a fine jigsaw I guess. I once had a company, make an electronic jigsaw from another of my photos.
Cheers, Herb

So a long time since when I was in Greece, in '98 for the third time, then never again. I would love to visit again.

Danni, Greece like your own homeland, to us Brits is a fantastic country to visit and spend time in. We have now had a few trips there and I shall visit the Islands again later this year. In that, I know I am very lucky. However, even without a real visit for you now since many years, perhaps you can just enjoy this scene with me. Regards, Herb

Herb Riddle club has replied to LutzP club
Ah the artist Escher, of 'steps' and impossible construction fame. Maybe you are right there my friend. This all looks a bit impossible too. Glad you liked it.

Hi Herb

I really like this view. It reminds me of those very detailed jigsaw puzzles where every part looks almost the same!

Best Wishes, and a good weekend

Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Thanks Peter. I know what you mean, I have seen those too. I did not have that in mind when I took this though -maybe moreso when put a frame around it. Thanks for enjoying it.

Cheers, enjoy your weekend too. Herb
