Melanie, my niece from Germany, came to visit me here on Crete, where she met Kassiani & her friends and had the time of their lives!

  • What a beautiful and uplifting video! :)
    Makes me want to visit Crete. I've been nearly all over the mainland but I've never reached that south to the islands. Shame on me.

    In any case...
    Congratulations!!!

    Phantastisch !!! Tolles Konzept, perfekte Ausfuehrung und einfach gute Laune machend. Manchmal vielleicht ein wenig zu viel Colorgrading in den Gesichtern aber insgesamt super Farben und die "Halb-Unterwasseraufnahmen" einfach grossartig.
  • Danke James!!! Deine comments schaetze ich ganz besonders!

    Crete looks like a wonderful place Christine. I think Vimeo needs to start up a Vimeographin exchange programme. You come to Australia and I go to Crete...

    Lots of fun.

    WOOWWWWWW CHRISTINE - your talent is "off the chain!!"

    I laughed and smiled during the entire video... and I am speechless. This is amazing that you had the thought, planning and talent to do this. Your friends and family must have had so much fun shooting this video. I loved all of the beautiful colors, editing, story line... and so much more that I cannot type in words.

    The crane shots are almost dizzying - so cool! Your exposure for each clip is superior!!!! You have shown that the 7D can perform in bright light - without any harshness - amazing that you achieved this!!!

    Congratulations - I am so proud to know who you are!!!

    Paul in Chicago
  • Thank you so much Paul!
    Yes, we had a lot of fun. It was also two weeks very,very hard work for me because I had to do almost everything on my own! And I mean everything!
    I had planed this month ago and I am glad that you liked it!
    Thank you so much asking about my father. Yes he is in peace, and comfortable!

    Many, many Greetings from Crete....

    I can only agree with all of the above, Christine, this short movie is a truly sublime four minutes.

    To keep up the energy levels of the 'ensemble' (let alone organise and photograph them so beautifully) demonstrates not only your skill but also the affection that your friends and family have for you.

    The leading 'Lady' is stunning and the whole thing utterly Joyful.
  • Bob, I love you! :)
