A magical fleeting moment in the wild. All the more brief because the moment was quickly followed by another wildlife encounter in the form of a blundering oaf, crashing through branches with the subtlety of a herd of hungry elephants. A well meaning oaf, but still an oaf. An oaf who now received a fierce glare from the budding Lara Croft. The doe suddenly decided there was a patch of grass somewhere over on the other side of the trees to our right, and made for them without further delay. Well, I just can’t squeeze through narrow gaps like she can. She’s small, wiry and unencumbered by a huge backpack and a tripod. And also, she’s not an oaf. Although later on it did transpire that she’s not completely perfect as she confessed she’d left the snacks in the car.<br /> <br /> The harebrained caper through the scrub to view the castle from the rocky outcrop on its east side had seemed like a good idea at first. It also looked relatively straightforward. Maybe there was a better way to get to the other side, but now that we'd started, we might as well carry on. Whether we should even have been on the other side was a question that we only asked ourselves later on, after the show. A level space between sections of sloping ground where grew a small olive grove, populated by a herd of feral goats, hemmed in by a small hill with a stone shed on top of it at one side, and the remains of the castle atop a steep rocky rise on the other. <br /> <br /> We’d come to the hill village of Asklipio to take a look at what remained of the fifteenth century castle, joining small groups of tourists who’d dragged themselves away from the beaches and bars to drive up to this village in the hills, walk along its parapets and take in the surrounding views. It’s a small castle, and only the most dedicated historians would find much to keep them within its crumbling walls for long. Everyone else who arrived, pulled up in the small car park and wandered around the ruin for quarter of an hour, before leaving to carry on their journeys. As ever, I was thinking about sunset photographs, and rather more specifically, whether I could include the castle in my shot. As we stared out over the east wall, the olive grove lay beneath us. There seemed to be a way through, over by the rocky rise to our right. That small hill on the other side might just be the ideal place. A quiet spot to pass a couple of hours and watch the sun go down over distant hills.<br /> <br /> At the edge of the olive grove, with the castle walls towering at our backs, we surveyed the scene. A stag moved across the space to follow the doe to fresh pastures. Across the way a black cow sat upon a small grassy platform, from where it watched the newcomers staring back at it. We’d have to take care here. Cows can be unpredictable beasts at times. We headed across the grove to the rise on the other side, from where we could enjoy three hundred and sixty degree views at the top that covered much of the western half of the island. And then we settled in to watch the afternoon go by without seeing another soul all afternoon - well apart from the occasional castle visitor on the other side of the olive grove, that is. <br /> <br /> The cow wasn’t a cow. It was an enormous goat, seemingly ostracised by the others, a group of whom were now scaling the near vertical crags upon which the castle stood, while just above them the latest of the fifteen minute tourists walked along the parapet, completely oblivious to the mountaineering exploits that were taking place just a few yards beneath them. In time, two young stags crossed the space below us, in and out of the shadows of the olive trees, gradually moving northwards along the grove as they grazed. On an afternoon such as this the hours roll away unnoticed. We just watch and listen. Nothing else is needed. The camera was already sitting on the tripod, pointing towards the light, composed and waiting for when I was ready. I’d take a photograph in a while, but not just yet.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/205008146@N02/">sambartijn</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/205008146@N02/55584531117/" title="Maidens of the Erechtheion"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55584531117_73bd72cfd8_m.jpg" width="240" height="172" alt="Maidens of the Erechtheion" /></a></p> <p>Caryatids of the Erechtheion, Athens.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/26747591@N08/">markdbaynham</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/26747591@N08/55584513737/" title="On The Phone (Hotel Lemnos-Greece) OM-1 &amp; Leica 42.5mm f1.2"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55584513737_5a942275e6_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="On The Phone (Hotel Lemnos-Greece) OM-1 &amp; Leica 42.5mm f1.2" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/26747591@N08/">markdbaynham</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/26747591@N08/55585960735/" title="Candid (Hotel Lemnos - Myrina Town) OM-1 &amp; Leica 42.5mm f1.2"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55585960735_29bdaf8279_m.jpg" width="240" height="240" alt="Candid (Hotel Lemnos - Myrina Town) OM-1 &amp; Leica 42.5mm f1.2" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/26747591@N08/">markdbaynham</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/26747591@N08/55585662898/" title="Candid (Limnos - Greece) (BW) OM-1 &amp; Leica 42.5mm f1.2 Prime Lens"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55585662898_ff08e36e56_m.jpg" width="240" height="240" alt="Candid (Limnos - Greece) (BW) OM-1 &amp; Leica 42.5mm f1.2 Prime Lens" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/jch1996photography/">James Hancock Photo</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jch1996photography/55585389066/" title="McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C Hornet | HN-420 | Finnish Air Force"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55585389066_f7dd419657_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C Hornet | HN-420 | Finnish Air Force" /></a></p> <p>Athens Flying Week - September 2026</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/jch1996photography/">James Hancock Photo</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jch1996photography/55584355057/" title="Dassault Rafale EG | 451 | Hellenic Air Force"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55584355057_cd507ea75c_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Dassault Rafale EG | 451 | Hellenic Air Force" /></a></p> <p>Athens Flying Week - September 2026</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/jch1996photography/">James Hancock Photo</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/jch1996photography/55585804175/" title="McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C Hornet | HN-418 | Finnish Air Force"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55585804175_f9040448ce_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C Hornet | HN-418 | Finnish Air Force" /></a></p> <p>Athens Flying Week - September 2026</p>
