[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
This lily was blooming in the ruins of a terraced garden surrounding the Monastery of Aghios Stavros on Skopelos. The Monastery is no longer inhabited, although the church is still maintained and used on occasions. The place was overgrown, the stonework crumbling and it had a very romantic atmosphere, which caused me to visit it more than once.

Hi Maggie,
Very romantic photo of the blooming lily. I like such a mysteriuos ruins very much, I like the atmospere here. Very nice photo.

warm regards

I like this picture, Maggie. I like it's subtlety: it's subtle changes of colour and gentle shifts of tone and texture.It is not an image screaming for attention but one that carries a more gentle message. It conveys very well the sad, wistful mood of this abandoned garden and the lily is like a shaft of light, at a bold angle across the frame, brings the whole thing to life. Regards kevin,

Hello Maggie,

a very moody picture with good romantic touch, well done..

Best regards Bernd

Hi Maggie, I like this little peep into a neglected corner. Nice colour tones and light, and good framing form the wall on the left and branch above.
cheers

Hello Maggie,

This is an entrancing corner. No wonder you returned to a site with such appeal.
The support pole seems to play a large part in the composition, in partnership with the roof. I like how the lily is following a parallel path.
Great contrast in textures, and lovely colour tones.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Maggie,
Recently I saw a couple of photos from Greece and today someone even mentioned Greece... I myself have never been
there, but images like this one always attract my attention - not only nice and glitzy images, but tiny
little corners that hide secrets and evoke many memories.
And this is one of them, that remind me of a similar places
I know and appreciate, wild, forgotten, untouched for
a longer period of time...
Thanks for sharing,
Robi

Geia sou Maggie!

Beautiful nature photography, excellent "detail", which you have framed perfectly, but also the background is beautiful and very interesting. Congratulations!

The bough of the tree makes an excellent frame for the top of the image. Looking through there are lots of diagonals that always make viewing easy on the eye. You have a wonderful eye for hidden details.
