This tranquil scene in Crete is viewed from Kalydon (Spinalonga peninsula) which is linked to the mainland at Elounda by a causeway. The bridge at the island end was built by the French army in 1897 to facilitate the passage of small vessels. TZ70_P1010265E

To Praktorio/το πρακτορείο Gyro restaurant in Elounda, Crete. In many countries, especially around the Mediterranean, it is not unusual to see buildings in this condition. Various explanations exist as to the state of incompletion. TZ70_P1010186E

Any experienced photographer will know that the best pictures are not usually taken in blazing sunlight. In the evening, the light in eastern Crete is very special although I probably have not done it full justice here in this view of part of the Blue Palace Resort. TZ70_P1010175E

The church of St Constantine and St Helen, Elounda. Εκκλησία Άγιος Κωνσταντίνος και Αγιά Ελένη, Σχίσμα Ελούντας. Ekklisia Agios Konstantinos ke Agia Eleni, Elounda. There is a lot going on in this photograph, looking roughly north in the the beach/harbour area of Elounda in Crete. The church and what I assume to be its free-standing bell tower (as it has a cross on top) dominate the picture. The dome of the church itself has an interesting four-armed cross. The small roundabout is at the north end of a short one-way system and in front of the bell tower is an outside eating area shared by two restaurants on the opposite side of the street (left). The delivery bikes belonging to one of the restaurants, Fresco Eatery, were being kept busy. TZ70_P1010174R
