Better Late Than Never ... August Greeblepix Contest!

Ummmmm. What day is it again? I have been in the video studio for over a week now and it's kind of like that Andy Warhol Sleep Movie, where you lose track of space and time and then all of a sudden you get an email from an old friend asking WHERE THE HELL IS GREEBLEPIX and you look at a calendar and remember, HOLY CRAP, I run this photo contest, like, on the blog and stuff, that should have happened, oh, I don't know, A LONG. TIME. AGO, but maybe in the meantime I can write a BIG, LONG run-on sentence and no one will notice that the photo contest is missing except - OH YEAH, SOMEONE ALREADY DID.

Point being - WHO IS READY TO WIN A $250 CAMERA RENTAL FROM PRO PHOTO RENTAL???

No theme, just share photos you love! Note the adjusted dates to make up for my stupidity.

I posted an architectural picture from my summer vacation. It’s a detailed shot of the cathedral’s tower whose details are wonderful against a clear blue Mediterranean sky. When I look at the picture I want to go back. Enjoy!
