Greece - Spring 2002

in 2002, i went to greece with W's family and beside playing the de facto tour guide (being a classics almost major makes you a supposed source of information), i took a bunch of photos with a film camera. my old n90s. all the images were shot in either black & white or color as seen and then scanned into the computer circa 2002 so the scanning quality wasn't as great as it is these days. that being said i worked pretty hard to get the images to have a nostalgic feel to them. the black & white in particular i did a lot of tweaking with settings and the film to get the texture i was looking forward. i miss the days of finesse. anyway greece was great. i never got a chance to go to the islands so that's a bummer, just all the historical sites i had learned about for four years. the next place i really wanted to go after greece was italy - the other classical location, but i didn't get the chance to go until 2007 before bschool (five years later).

i can't remember what temple this was


a random greek road, but its a recreation of a bresson-cartier image i LOVE
