Thanks, davev! Note that the buildings with the blue domed roofs are family-owned churches. Read more about the churches here: http://www.oia-santorini.net/oia-churches.html .

I really like this shot. The colors just pop.
This area looks so different from the cookie cutter stuff we see in the U.S.
A great image for the challenge.

My father-in-law took a similar, though not as high-quality, shot when he and my late mother-in-law were in Santorini. An ice cream sundae on a table added a touch of whimsy, and a local photo lab worked the image into a large and dazzling print that graced a wall in their home for years. Seeing this reminded me how much I miss them and their wonderful hospitality. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Before I read your comments I asked myself where did he shoot this one. Never would have guessed Greece no doubt since I've never been there or experienced it. Paul
