Watching the Watchers

Now Playing: Alizee - Moi... Lolita

These pictures - of people watching/waiting for the sunset - were all taken from a terrace in the cliff-top town of Oia on Santorini.


Waiting...
Pretty Colours...
Really Pretty Now...
I sense a theme here...
The Grand Finale

So cool! Sunsets = awesome. :D Also, I wonder if people in the cliff-top town have higher hemoglobin counts than the rest of us?

bThe cliffs are only (hah! "only?") 300m above sea level, and according to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altitude_acclimatization#Altitude_acclimatisation) altitude acclimatisation only occurs above 3000 m.

So no higher Hemoglobin counts for them cliff-top dwellers! They'll just have to content themselves with living on a gorgeous greek island with spectacular sunsets and beaches and... what was my point?

Lovin the deep hues. Always so much more interesting. :)

Lovely shots (both in these, and the Toronto sunset post).

I'd love to see some of those sights through a wide angle lens.

100hands: y'know, i was actually running out of battery while taking those shots, so i had to continually switch off the camera, switch it back on and take a picture, then switch it off again...

salil: a wide-angle lens sounds good, but i'm not sure my camera can use one... *runs off to check*
