Greek Island Contrast

This image depicts two Greek island scenes. The one on the left was taken in Oia, on Santorini and the one on the right was taken on Mykonos. I used adjustment levels to create what I like to call my "fantasy mode" and then I pasted the photos into a frame template.

Babulas Taverna

Babulas Taverna is one of the first eating establishments we saw as we arrived in Mykonos. The red fishing boat makes it highly visible, especially when you see the octopus, one of their specialties, strung up and drying above the boat.

I've added a postcard texture from Shadowhouse Creations.

Mykonos Cat

Walking through the narrow streets of Mykonos, I turned a corner and found this cat sleeping peacefully on a worn old chair near some discarded trash. I couldn't resist taking his photo.

Mykonos Windmill

Most of the iconic windmills of Mykonos were built by the Venetians in the 16th century and primarily used to grind wheat. There are currently 16 windmills on the island. Some of them have been restored and used as dwellings. One has been converted to a museum.

I've added some adjustment layers to enhance the colors and brightness.
