It is amazing how colors can look different in different countries and circumstances. It was definitely so on my trip to Crete in 2005. The sun in Greece seems to shine a hundred times brighter and clarify everything. The Cretan architecture has a lot of white and blue hues, which somehow emphasize the blueness of the clear skies.
This blue orthodox church was on top of the village, up a steep slope, with a magnificent vista of the Mediterranean opening on us. I didn't go for the traditional post car picture with the sea looming behind the church. I decided to see what the interplay of the blue hues of the sky and the church would look like.
