voyage to Kythera Archives • nicki panou | upstairs photography https://nickiupstairs.com/category/kythera/ a different kind of reality Sat, 05 Oct 2019 07:51:11 +0000 en-GB hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.1 Greetings Australia! https://nickiupstairs.com/greetings-australia/ Sat, 21 Nov 2015 18:17:10 +0000 http://nickiupstairs.com/?p=965 I got a very nice surprise all the way from Australia this morning. George Vardas, who is the cultural officer of the Kytherian Association of Australia (www.kythera-family.net) contacted me via Twitter and let me know of a really nice review he did about last year’s Kythera Photographic Encounters, in the association’s newsletter. In this review he […]

It was taken in one of the island’s most famous beaches, Kaladi beach. It is a rather secluded beach, so I had to drive on dirtroads and climb down several stone steps to reach it, but its beauty is well worth it! Unfortunately, […]

The same day I was exploring the bridge of Katouni, I set to discover a way to reach an old english school I had read about, the school of Milapidea. After locating it from the road, I attempted to approach it through some very […]

The bridge in Katouni, Kythera, was built during the island’s British domination and it’s the largest stone bridge ever built in Greece, with a length of 110m, height 15m and width 6m. It’s the biggest structure built by the Brits on […]

I had to move into a new house, which means a lot of running around, packing, unpacking, carrying, cleaning, organizing and anything else that goes with settling into a new home. At last I think we have tied up our loose ends and we can finally start […]

This one was taken on my last day there. I was driving around exploring parts of the island where I hadn’t been yet, when I arrived at the island’s port, Diakofti. As I was driving down towards the village, I spotted this shipwreck. I remembered reading somewhere about it, […]

The event lasted three days and it included a number of exhibitions and also a photography convention. I have to admit my visit there did not live up to my expectations for a number of reasons, […]

After all, taking part in an exhibition was one of my goals for this year, so I had to pursue it at some point. One of those submissions […]
