Yeah, this is it, that's the picture that I wanted to take for years!
The girl was yelling in a frantic way. She was genuinely thrilled and deliriously happy! So happy that she made me feel uncomfortable.
I was on the edge of a 200 meters cliff, my open camera bag, with all my prime lenses, was sloppily laid on a rock and an uncontrollable teenager was hopping behind my back!
Fortunately everything turned out well :)
I finished the shots I needed for a panorama picture, I closed my bag and I offered my spot to the overexcited girl.
After all, this is indeed the best spot to take a picture of Nafplio and everyone deserves a minute or two on the edge of the cliff :)
Of course I didn't limit myself to the one panorama that I wanted to shoot anyway, far from it!
Up there I feel like flying, like I am an eagle looking for my prey at the old fortress, at the beach, at the town's streets.
I see them all, I rule them all!
If you allow me to paraphrase a favourite movie :)
It is so peculiar to look all the places that I know so well, from above. Everything is familiar but at the same time different. Maybe I should make up my mind to start using that drone that I bought a few years ago. I don't know why I have been so procrastinating about using it but looking the town from up here opened my appetite for some more aerial adventures :)
The camera that I used is a Canon EOS 6D mark II with almost all my lenses!
EF 16-35mm f4L, EF 24-105mm f4L and my favourite oldie from the 80s, a black EF 80-200 f2.8L
I edited the photographs in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Classic .
All the pictures and the words are mine.
