Recent participation in some photography forums has piqued an interest in doing a Project 365. Photography has been a hobby on and off for over 40 years and in the last 18 months my interest has intensified. So I've decided to jump in, give it a shot (no pun intended) and see if I can shoot every day for a year.

My expectations for this project are that it will provide motivation to expand my skills both behind the camera and in post-processing and provide a vehicle for experimentation. My photog pal Doug has been a great mentor, so I want to publicly say thanks; this is your fault (kidding of course).

It is going to be a learning experience, so any and all comments, critiques and encouraging words are welcome.

Thanks for viewing.

Fira Morning

10/5/10 - Day 291
Regretably, today was our last day in Santorini. A leisurely breakfast, from which this shot was taken back towards our hotel, followed by a short walk to a previously visited ceramics gallery (which will be the subject of future Flickr postings).

We would love to return to this paradise someday.

Sunset Sail

10/4/10 - Day 290
We went to the very tip of the island, to a town called Oia, for the sunset. This location provides a very different perspective than in Fira where we were staying. While shooting the sunset, I spotted this sailboat cruising the bay and liked the way the low sun illuminated the sails.

Stairway to the Sky

10/3/10 - Day 289
Climbed up to the remains of Ancient Thera today. This short stairway, dated from the 2nd century B.C., provided another amazing view.
