The Mantis Shrimp

This is daily life, Greece, one photo (or photoset) per day. A journal of sorts, this is my effort to learn, to record, to inquire, to not shove my camera into some drawer until the next trip.

I can't even begin to imagine what the explanation behind this could be.

Here's another one of my friend's awesome poses.

Hanging out right in front of the meat market, probably waiting for someone to give him/her a snack.

This man was sitting alone in a bar last night, enjoying a glass of wine while sketching. I assumed he was practicing, drawing sketches of the surroundings, people in the bar etc. At some point my friend approached him and asked him what he was drawing: "Flowers" he said. Unfortunately I couldn't get a better shot at him, but this one will do for his memorable answer.

Kotzia square and the Athens City Hall on a Saturday afternoon. Autumn's here for good.

This dude was hanging out on a bike last night, patiently waiting for his master and indulging in the sympathies of strangers who went "OMG LOOK AT THIS CUTE LITTLE THING, SITTING THERE ALL ALONE LET'S GO PET HIM" etc.

He had one hell of a good time, if you ask me. Better than the vast majority of singles who were out last night enjoying a drink and trying to, you know, not be single anymore.

Don't shoot bokeh & drive, you idiot.

Meeting with friends is always a pleasant occasion. Especially when they improvise like this.

Looney time. Been wanting to do this for a while. It's not the best time of the year, nor do I have the perfect equipment for it, but oh well. It was nice to turn my lens away from the city for a little bit. =)

And some cheesy photography for goodnight. Feel free to use this as a background for a Coelho quote or smth. In my defence, it was a beautiful rose.

So Athens.

Enjoyed the rain today?
