keestone.livejournal.comI've been meaning to do this since July, but since I mentioned it in my comment in the birthday post... What, me? Procrastinate?
I spent a little over a week in Greece this summer, and could not stop taking pictures (I think I took around 700 photos) . . . not just the typical tourist pictures though. I kept seeing things and relating them a little bit to how I picture Eddis, Sounis, and Attolia. So, I figured I'd share a few of the pictures. I've left out most of the really touristy ones, the ones my sisters and me, and most of the really obviously ancient or really obviously modern stuff. So, very little Parthenon, Temple of Olympian Zeus, or Temple of Poseidon here -- it's more the stuff around the corner, the landscape and olive trees (lots of trees ... I'm weirdly obsessed with taking pictures of trees), some Byzantine architecture, and of course some ancient ruins because I couldn't not.
(Link to the album is here.)
The photos of costume I have are mostly from the 18th and 19th centuries so later period than I imagine (I didn't have my camera on the day we were looking at earlier costume), but I found the quality of the textiles, the detail, and the effect of layering fascinating and figured I'd share them too.
So, let me know what you think. Are there any photos that remind you of quotations or scenes? How do you imagine the landscape?
