Lakka Harbour at Paxos island ... HDR

            Even though I consider myself a constant, diachronic lover of dull coloured, sharp toned, low light photography this time I truly couldn't resist !!! While walking around Paxos island, I saw this very image in front of me ... Green leaves, turquoise blue sea, multi-coloured backround peninsula, white and blue catamaran boat, blue sky and ... sunlight .... lots of sunlight ....  tons of sunlight !!! So, I kept only the sharp toned element of my permanent photographic preferenses and threw the rest away !!!  After all, that is exactly what my country Greece is all about ... at least during summer period ...

EXIF: Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZX1, ISO 100, f 3,3 focal length 4,5 mm, shot's EV biased to -2 steps (so as to be able to catch the blue of the sky), HDR made by only one original shot, shutter speed 1/640 s, flash did not fire (there was obviously no need) ...
