Farewell to 2006

Let's bid a farewell to 2006 with this wonderful painting which is titled "Santorini". It's dedicated to all of you who stopped by Athens photoblog, to you who left a comment and to everyone who just passed by and took a glimpse of the athenian and greek sun.

I also especially dedicate this joyful scene to everyone who had a sad moment, small or big, during these holidays. Life is sometimes so ironic that in days of great happiness the saddest things can happen.

P.S.
I hope you 'll forgive my little own artistic intervention: it's the "sun" just over the hills on the background which is, actually, the flash of my camera.
Happy new year to all.
