Photographer’s Note

Another colourful image to brighten up these grey autumn days (at least here in Prague...)

Klima is the largest and probably also the most photographed fishing village on the island of Milos, in the south-western Cyclades.

These villages are made up of these little dwellings with boat "garages", called syrmata, where the fishermen would sleep before going out to sea early in the morning, so that they would not have to climb down the steep hills in the dark (or so I am told :-) ). Some of these garages are simply carved into the rock, with a front and a door put on, some more developed, like these ones, featuring balconies.
