Whitewashed Windmills on Volcanic Ground

            This is a shot of dazzling, whitewashed Windmills in juxtaposition with the dark volcanic ground of igneous rock such as theralite, santorin etc. on on Santorini Island, Greece. The island of Santorini is also known as Thēra (Θήρα in Greek, aka as Thira). The architecture of the island is of course Cycladic yet it has a distinctive style of its own. The shot was taken in late October.
