A Walk IN athina

Athens is a fascinating city. Take a walk around the compact city centre, avoiding the tourist sites and exploring the daily life of the city. These photographs were taken on a morning’s stroll from the Archeological Museum in Exarchia, to Omonia Square, Athenas Street (the City Markets), Syntagma Square, Kolonaki and back to Exarchia. I was using my Nikon D3 with 28mm f1.4, 85mm f1.4 and the 135mm f2.

The image locations are marked on a map of Athens, and captions refer where appropriate to the links below.
