Very nice tonal range..really conveys the dazzling light and you were able to hold all of the detail.

Is that snow? Was it winter-time ?

Thank you. Yes,Vic, it was a bright sunny -but freezing- day in winter. It was taken in 1972 or '73. I don't remember well.

Kyprianos,

I just caught up with this, and glad I did. I would mirror Vic and Bert's comments, they pretty well spelled it out.

Thank you George. Funny thing is that film was found accidentally. It was then developed and printed in 6x9 prints (very bad quality). It was perfectly stored in a closed metal box for 17m Agfapan bulk film. See here:

Kyprianos,
I never got a shot like this on my holidays in Greece. Now you make me want to return and shoot this. You should work for the tourist board.

Cheers
Vincent

Thank you TEX. Greece and every place in the world, can sometimes reveal the unseen. Remember, I was standing far away at a long distance amazing that really beautiful landscape. I had with me a normal lens and short 135/4 tele. It was the background that pushed me to set aside the 50/1,5. It was midday.

So glad you posted this interesting photograph. I'm filled with questions like who delivers the paper and where is the car parked? I only dream of such a get-away, if only to keep the door-to-door salvation folks away!
