Athens through the eyes of other people

I recently moved in Athens. When I say "recently" I mean like "a year more or less". I know exactly how much I've been here, because I count each day, but I prefer to say "more or less". My feelings about Athens are mixed, and that's obvious, since I haven't posted anything here for a long time. But maybe other people can do that for me.

That's why I asked a friend to write a piece for my blog, and he did. You probably want to know more about the author, but I'm not going to give you any more information than he does in his piece. So, this is his take on Athens. Enjoy:

Morocco through sliding photography (a new concept?)

Here is a video from my last visit to Morocco, about a year ago (remember?). It contains some of the many blury pictures I shot while moving.

Sometimes you can see the possibility of a good picture, but you don't have the time or the camera to make it true. While in a car in Morocco, I thought "hey, my cell phone can shoot pictures and they don't have to be stable. I'm not going to publish them or anything, I will shoot them just to remind me the moment". So, I started shooting everything I saw. Some of these pictures turned out stable, but I didn;t find them nearly as interesting as the distorted ones. Distortion in time, space, geometry, motion, the prevalence of colors over the shapes and the bluring of the insignificant details give to these pictures an unintented but wellcomed quality.
