Description
NOTE: FINE ART AMERICA WATERMARK WILL NOT APPEAR ON PURCHASED IMAGE.
A beautiful street in Old Corfu Town, Greece, on a wonderfully hot and sleepy afternoon in July of 2005. Looking closely, you can see the tourists heading our way from down the street.
Handheld image taken with the Olympus C-5000 zoom on July 27, 2005. Shutter 1/250, aperture f/5.6, exposure 0.00, iso 50. In other words, totally automatic and if I�d had to explain what a shutter speed was in those days, I couldn�t have done it!! This image was put through photoshop to remove distracting electrical lines, then popped into Photomatix, single image at +/- 2 eval.

Perfect title; the streets are all shiny clean and the locals look ready to relieve all the visitors of their cash :)

Beautiful image, brings back memories, I probably have that corner restaurant in one of photos. I have a couple images posted of Old Corfu on FAA. Great shot!

Hi Julie!!! Thank you!!!! Wasn't it just the most charming place?? I loved Corfu!!!!! My only regret is that I was camera-clueless when I was in the Med ... sigh ... I'll have to take a look at your portfolio!!! Thanks for stopping by!!!
