The old minaret adjacent to St Nikolaos church is a perfect reminder of the way the East met the West in the town I made my home, Chania, Crete, Greece.
The photographs I post all help to tell a part of a longer story that focuses on the town and its citizens, whether they are living there now, or have made their home in other parts of the world. As a newer resident, by writing about the town in this way, I am trying to put some order into the chaos that I seem to be confronted with.

A very gnarled olive tree trunk, in a healthy olive grove near my house.
I have always been fascinated by the personality of old tree trunks. This olive tree is beautifully gnarled and seems to even have a secret "cave" built in! Wonderful!
Each one has such character. No two alike.
