Santorini | Greece

Everything on the Greek Isle of Santorini seems designed for one time of day - sunset. White-washed buildings, blue domes, bell towers all expectantly stand watch over the sea. Human spectators gather every evening as the sun meets the waters, and clap in homage to the show’s creator. Desiring a private viewing, we returned to the island in April, a month noted for storms that drive skies into a frenzy and visitors into refuge. After three days of heavy winds, the sky churned like a boiling stew. Then, as the winds calmed, so did the waters. And all that watched - both human and inanimate - saw the brilliant reward of reaching another day’s close.
