On my first full day in Athens, I took the obligatory tour of the Acropolis and its surroundings. It was a cold, windy February day. These images are from the first part of the walk, taking in the Acropolis with its spectacular views of Athens.
Getting out at Monastiraki Metro Station, I found myself in the Greek Capital's tourist hub. Transitioning from a long-haul international flight to this high-energy location was a bit of a challenge. Undeterred, I decided to take some photos with my compact camera, rather than unpack my usual setup.
