Athens and Delphi, Greece, 2023
In 2023, I had an eye operation and I was unable to use screens for two weeks. I listened to the Percy Jackson book series and it inspired me to go to Greece as soon as I had recovered. I spent four nights in Athens and did a day trip to Delphi; I visited many museums and archeological sites. They say the best camera is the one you have with you, and I had a Google Pixel 4a.

A cat in the ancient agora of Athens. I like the composition and how happy the cat looks.

Treasury of Athens, Delphi. The view from the mountain side was incredibly beautiful. It had just rained which adds to the lighting.

Tholos of Athena, Delphi. 2,500 years ago, I would have been killed for trespassing as men were not allowed into the women-only sanctuary.

The view from Delphi to the Gulf of Corinth. I love the sun rays in the distance, with the contrast between the light there and the cloudliness up close.
