Mosaics at Kato Paphos (Pafos) Archaeological Park, Cyprus

With their intricate designs and liquorice all sorts colours you can't help but be astounded by the fact that these are from Roman times and are still in fantastic condition! The first one of the lady's head reminded me of dolly mixtures and looked good enough to eat!

Brollies on the beach

One evening on a deserted beach in Limassol here were regimented parasols - great to photograph against the sea and brightly coloured buoys and abandoned sun loungers.

Wave your hands in the air...

We came across these huge scuplted hands when visiting Kissonerga near Paphos in Cyprus and thought they were amazing!

Don't look down!

I can't remember if this is the same person climbing Aphrodite's Rock, Cyprus but he was far braver than I!

Silhouettes of the sea at Aphrodite's Rock, Episkopi, Cyprus

There is something that you can't explain when you can get to frame pictures with silhouettes of pebbles, rocks or walls!

Sanctuary of Apollon Ylatis, Limassol, Cyprus

This Temple to Apollo was one place where we could photograph to our heart's content as we were the only visitors. Time for some polarisation due to a wonderfully blue sky!

Kolossi Castle, Limassol, Cyprus

I've been playing with the miniature function on my camera for a while but thought I'd have a go with architecture rather than people for a change. Arches and spirals at Kolossi Castle, originally built in the 13th century made for some interesting features and angles. I have to admit I didn't go all the way to the top of these steps!
