Naoussa Burn

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 16 mm, 30 sec at f/8, ISO 64 x 3 Frames

Another day, another beautiful sunset over the harbour at Naoussa on the island of Paros

It was very windy this evening so I wasn’t able to go anywhere near the sea wall or over the causeway. Intermittently waves would even crash over the wall so if you were on the causeway you’d likely get swept off. Standing on there taking long exposures was, well, not advised 🙂

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.

Kolympethres

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S @ 24 mm, 1/100 sec at f/8, ISO 64 x 3 Frames

We went for a drive to the northernmost tip of Paros island to the Paros Park area and Monastiri beach

On the way back I wanted to fly the drone over the crazy rock formations of the Mycenaean Acropolis area (the part on the far right of these panoramas) which is near Kolympethres (beach) with it’s own crazy rock formations

We drove up the hill on some random windy dirt track and parked somewhat precariously on the edge of the drop. For which Louise was not entirely pleased

The first panorama is taken handheld with my “real” camera and the second is a 180˚ from the drone well above. It was quite gusty windy so I didn’t have much success with the drone today. The gusts of wind would end up disrupting the shooting of the frames for a panorama

Some spots in these back laneways lend themselves perfectly for a long lens portrait. Two of Louise and one of yours truly 🙂
