This was one of the allies on the Island of Patmos in Greece. It was a beautiful place. All of the buildings were white with splashes of color. Thanks to all who view and comment.

Very quaint. Even tho it is modern, I can sense how it was in the old days. pretty colors. Good post.

Very romantic, lovely.

(I hope you meant it IS, rather than WAS, a beatiful place!)

Did you visit The Cave?

P.S. You've captured my dream! I've dreamed of having a house in Greece just like these, but discretely modernized -- until I found out how earthquake-prone the whole area is. Then I realized maybe some day I can have a house that LOOKS like these, but it has to be built of steel-reinforced concrete!

What a wonderful place to live. Lovely and exotic. I love the blue doors and windows, such a pretty contrast to the white. Well done photo. Focus, DOF, composition, exposure, all perfect.

I love pictures of the Greek islands. Yours looks cozy and inviting. Please share more if you have them and are willing.

This is just precious! I love it when colours like this are used in architecture..they do this in SanFrancisco too, I wish more places did it...and stop being so boring. In Oregon it rains a lot and its gray skies about 8 months of the year, and sheesh
these people paint things gray, black, beige, white..and the houses are the same..pathetic..I LOVE this photo you've shared with us. It makes me feel like I need to be there...such gentleness is conveyed..And the stucco plus the arches, wow, its so pretty..please post more...Verena

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

I agree with Verena. It must be the colors that they're used to seeing, bright blue skies and all that make them use these lovely colors..whatever the reason, I agree. I get tired of the "somber" colors we usually utilize.
