Thank you for sharing your fabulous photos

I think Flossie’s idea of making a calendar for a charitable cause of your fabulous photography is an excellent idea they would certainly raise much needed funds......

What fab photos!

Have you thought of going to a printer and making a calendar out of them to raise money for a local charity? I'd definitely buy one plus more for UK friends. Despite being an ardent animal rescuer and supporter there are only so many cat and dog calendars I can take!

This idea of a calendar I realized just after the war in 1976. I bought 10 special calendars in G.,which had space to add 12 photos in size A 4, and I used my photo shots from 1970-74 to complete the calendar. All the pics were from Kyrenia/Lapithos/Karavas/5 miles beach area showing places before they were destroyed/abandoned in war time. It was a great success when I distributed them to displaced families which were living in the North before the war and now in Paphos/Polis area. Specially Savvas pottery in Koloni which produced their pottery in the past at Lapithos were moved to tears when I gave them the calendar with a pic of their old pottery in it. At the time in 1976 it was extremely expensive to get 120 photos done in A4 from dia positive film, but for me it was worth every penny...

My fave is the donkey. I love nosey donkeys.

This first photo was the most difficult one. Imagine to avoid he was licking my camera lens and to get the whole head on the pic, including the car mirror to prove the situation....that one can see his eyes also in the mirror was just lucky.. I bet most of the people didn't recognize that! Here a close up....
