A cloudy day in Athens









I woke up in the morning and discovered that it was rather overcast. This type of weather is not ideal to take landscape photographs. The sky was hazy and dull. I made use of the time to wonder around the streets of Athens and to go back to the harbour. Back at the harbour I shot more pictures of the huge sea faring vessels.
I was disappointed with the light compared to the previous days. If one has to compare the pictures that I took today, compared to those of the harbour of two days ago, it just shows how the same scenery can change with different conditions in the weather, or by going back at a different time. I took these shots using my Canon EOS1 DS Mark with my two usual zooms. During the day I also shot some pictures of the many statues that are found in Athens, I also captured a couple of shots of the National Flag, flying in the wind.
