The Medieval Castle of Paphos...
.....Το κάστρο αγκαλιάζει το λιμάνι και την προκυμαία....Εδώ που η ζωή περιδιαβαίνει αμέριμνη , καθώς ΕΔΩ οι διακοπές διαρκούν όλο το χρόνο.....
....Το μεσαιωνικό φρούριο με το λιμάνι είναι η πιο χαρακτηριστική εικόνα της Πάφου....Το κάστρο λες και συνεχίζει , ριζωμένο πάνω στα βράχια , να μένει πιστό στο καθήκον του....Να προστατεύει το λιμάνι από τα κύματα της ανοικτής θάλασσας , όπως έκανε παλιά με τα κύματα των κατακτητών....
...ΚΑΙ ΤΟΤΕ ΚΑΙ ΤΩΡΑ το λιμάνι ήταν προορισμένο να προστατεύει.......!!!!!
.......ΧΤΙΣΤΗΚΕ αρχικά τη βυζαντινή περίοδο , καταστράφηκε και χτίστηκε ξανά από τους Λουζινιανούς....τον 13ο αιώνα... , το κατέστρεψαν οι Ενετοί και το ανοικοδόμησαν οι Τούρκοι όταν κατέλαβαν το νησί......
.......Τώρα από τις πολεμίστρες του Κάστρου απολαμβάνετε ειρηνικές εικόνες , του λιμανιού , της προκυμαίας με τους φοινικες και πίσω το πέλαγος που γίνεται χρυσό το λιόγερμα........

The Milky Way galaxy is home to 400 billion stars and our own sun and solar system. It is nearly 120,000 light-years across and a shining example of a spiral galaxy.
Its name "milky" is derived from its appearance as a dim glowing band arching across the night sky in which the naked eye cannot distinguish individual stars. The term "Milky Way" is a translation of the Latin via lactea, from the Greek γαλαξίας κύκλος (galaxías kýklos, "milky circle")
From Earth, the Milky Way appears as a band because its disk-shaped structure is viewed from within. Galileo Galilei first resolved the band of light into individual stars with his telescope in 1610. Up until the early 1920s, most astronomers thought that all of the stars in the Universe were contained inside of the Milky Way

I anticipated a great Sunset but the reflections turned out to be something else as there was absolutely no wind at the Dam of Tamasos; near Nicosia, Cyprus.

The Wreck Of The Demetrios II.
The wreck is the Demetrios II, a cargo ship built in 1964 by J J Sietas KG at their shipbuilding yard in Hamburg-Neuenfelder, Germany.
The ship is60 metres in length and weighing more than 900 tonnes.
The Honduran-flagged M/V Demetrios II ran aground off Paphos Lighthouse on 23 March 1998 in heavy seas during a voyage from Greece to Syria with a cargo of timber.
The crew were rescued and airlifted to the safety of Paphos by a British Military Helicopter.
The wreck remains on the rocks today, gradually rusting away. The story goes it’d cost more to salvage it than it’s worth, so it’s likely to stay there for a long time to come.
The ship meanwhile, was left stranded on the rocks, and has become a tourist attraction and local landmark.
" Photography for
me is not looking ,.....
its FEELING....!!!!! If you
can't feel what
you 're looking at ,
then you 're never
going to get others
to feel anything
when they look at
your pictures.

This is dedicated to my friend ajax8055 for inspiring the title. This afternoon we had the most amazing sunset I have ever seen in Larnaka, Cyprus.
Even greenish-yellowish tints to it, besides the usual sunset colors! Lovely to look at but makes one wonder what is going on in the global atmosphere, given similar phenomena reported by Flickr friends all over the world.
A delicious sunset over the salt lake at Larnaca, Cyprus. Notice the head-like figure over the clouds on the left side, with the hair blowing in the wind!
You simply have to View On Black
