Aegean Sea

Greece
Aegean Sea

Aegean Sea has been a Greek territory since the 3rd millenium BC,cradle of all the rich narrations of the greek mythology, locality of the first Cykladean civilization in 3rd millenium BC, and later of Minoan(Creta), Mycenean, Classic Greek and Macedonian one.All the greek ancient world has been "baptized" in its waters...
Aegean Sea may not always be calm, blue, glittering under sun rays and most welcoming as in summer. It can be spooky,dark fierce and hostile in long and cold wintery days...Greek seamen and fishermen have always something to tell about this!.....

The photo is at the Heraklio(Candia) harbour.

(All photos have been taken using a tripod on high speed film(6x4,5) and using a ND and red filter to menage with the strong mid-day light.Digital transition followed later with a Nikon film scanner.)

..yes, looking at your photographs it is evident, that you're using filters...the pictures get more sharpness, more contrast...really good! I like this! Friendly, Ansgar

  You may be right,Katy. Though, my main initiative was to intensify the rough sea using the strongest of contrast and eliminating any "grayness from around.(Personally I consider "grayness" as the...worst enemy in b+w photography. It reduses the tonality of the blacks and whites especially when using a strong red filter.)
  Thanks very much, my dear, for your attention and valuable comments. alexander
