Elesha: Back in Nafplio

 Top of the priority list during Elesha's very short stay in Tolo was to visit Nafplio. I don't think we really explored the beauty of the back streets of the Old Town with the little narrow Venetian streets and the passageways creeping up the steep slopes leading to the Palamedes. What you can photograph in about an hour is really quite surprising in nearly 40C, so rushing is not an option. My usual wander and stop shooting style was just the ticket looking for interesting backdrops and views. Evening is the best time when the sun is not above us. After shooting it was down to the harbour to watch sunset with a cool drink. Then a meal in a backstreet Taverna.

Elesha and Katy in Nafplio

 Greece is my second home in the summer and even during the pandemic I still managed to visit Tolo on the Peloponnese. Elesha was rather lost with all her dance and modelling work cancelled, so I invited her to come. She jumped at the chance. Having got to know Katy, my friend Dimitri's daughter we thought an evening out in Nafplio was on the cards. The old town in Nafplio is amazing with all it's mix of architecture, narrow streets and steps along with a beautiful harbour. We didn't shoot for very long as the heat was still intense well into the evening. Nafplio is busy and bustling but a few steps up the hill and you are in the quiet zone.
