Thanks for voting.
The competition was tough.
The place is in north Greece and it's called PORTO-LAGOS
It's the only place in Greece where you can find pink flamingos.
I'cant vote because the internet in post olympics Greece 2004 is aproximately the same as it was at 1896.
My connection is dialup 33600 !!!

beautiful lines in this picture, but something just doesn't seem right... I seem to get a little lost in this photo. Great colours though, and excellent timing with the light!

All I can say is "wow!" Quite a stunning sky.

Wow. Love the colours in the sky. The waves and the bank do not seem as sharp as the rest - I presume that this is due to the length of the exposure?

lovely photo. Why can't I live in cool places like this? I guess i like the city too much. the colors are gorgeous, but the fisheye distortion is what makes it for me.

Interesting scene with a very dramatic (in a good way) sky. I am automatically interested in what lays at the end of this bridge. The photo invites you to get to want to know this if you know what I mean. (what do I want to say?) :)

Spectacular!!! I'm drawn to the sky and sunset, instead of the bridge though.

Oh boy, what a sky... but not sure if i like lens you used.

this one has potential but i think the two bits of wood on the bridge distract too much and let it down somewhat! beautiful colours though, i like it!
