This is a famous cocktail bar in the city of Areopoli in the Mani region of Greece. This is a very popular and crowded spot during the summer months. However in November it's a very peaceful, laid back town where you can have a chill afternoon, like the couple in the photo.

This photo was taken with my cellphone Sony Xperia Mark 1 III. Photo was taken in the afternoon with an overcast sky.

This was taken on a bluff over looking the Pacific Ocean. That is Santa Cruz Island in the background. This fellow would fly his airplane in the updrafts created by an onshore breeze. I took numerous shots to try to capture the moment of peak action of the launch. 1/5000, f-3.5, ISO 200. I used Photo Shop to take out a oil platform in the background and a wind vane pole that was in front of the man.
