Antonius and Athena

I try not to stereotype people, but when I saw these two at the shorelines of Greece, it was hard not to! This is the kind of image of the people that so many movies seem to conjure up when one talks about Greece or cruising around the Mediterranean, down to the white linen suit. So here's my version - and they were not posing, this was a totally candid shot!

Taken at Zakynthos Island, Greece.

Classic shot and great capture. But you should have asked me for a model release first. Anyway, this is a shot of me on one of my life boats.

The gesture is wonderful, Azlin -- everything works here to establish a connection between the two people -- the white clothing, the white boat, the negative space of rock between them, and particularly the raised hand of the man and the extended arm of the woman.

When i think of Greece i think of Anthony Quinn in Zorba the Greek....
But indeed this is another thinking about Greece and those great places to visit by boat....

Now I believe, its for real. Like a scene taken from Bollywood. well captured, Azlin.

If she wrecks his $$$ yacht I bet that smile of his would soon disappear, and she will if she doesn't get her eyes off of him. But maybe it's her boat and she always drives this way. Good candid, Azlin.
