Gomati beach, a photo from Lesvos, North Aegean

Photographer's Note

The coast at Gomati has one of the most sandy shores on the island. In this region, during the 14th century, many settlements existed and some farm-houses belonging to the Monasteries of Athos. The one named Theomitoros was the most important possession of Megisti Lavra on the island. Till 1928 a monk lived here. The small uninhabited island just north of Gomati, called Sirghisti - the Byzantine Sideritis - also belonged to the Monastery. Papia, which is a coast in the east, is known as an excellent fishing place. (http://www.gtp.gr)

Hi Vasilis,
A great capture you have here. You've managed to minimalise the people from the beach for catching more of the natural enviroment, but the main attention is still concentrated over the human element.
Have a great day forward.

Hello Vasilis, although this is a pleasant beach scene it is rather spoilt for me by the heavy frame and empty foreground .
Cheers Les
