Strolling in Athens during Christmas holidays 2012. In places where once was safe to stroll, in places where it’s not wise anymore to stroll. Athens, a city full of cops, a city greatly missed by its citizens.

The only smile in town






















the only smile in town is upside-down… ;(
It’s a shame that the statue is vandalized like that >_< I really like the series, from all photos, I saw the people are trying to go through the condition there, despite of anything's happened.
Reblogged this on Adventures in Photography.
superbe ces scenes de rue
Great series, Stam!
I especially like “You can’t park here” and “Lady in the metro station”…
Why are so many cops patroling the city? It looks like the Greek government is in the state of war with the people…
Wonderful series Stamati!
But… We can try to smile… i smile… i am sure you do too…
Emblematic and thought provoking series, your images really convey your words.
Many ace street images in this series. 2, 12, 13, 14, 15 are my top five.
Nice series man!
Πάντα πίστευα ότι η Αθήνα ήταν όμορφη τα Χριστούγεννα. Μάλλον όχι πια…
Damn, the sex shop photo is a classic!!
The ladies with the babies are smiling, though I do remember you saying once that your entire country is depressed. The banksters who created this mess should be jailed for life
Beautiful set of photos. The girl in the book store is incredible!
another fine set of images stam
Εξαιρετικός , όπως πάντα …

Υπάρχει και ένα φυσικό χαμόγελο , εκτός από το “πλαστικό” της τελευταίας φωτογραφίας . Στην 8η φωτο … Όμορφο χαμόγελο . Από καρδιάς που λένε . Όχι βεβιασμένο … Μιας νεαρής μαμάς (υποθέτω) .
Τελικά , υπάρχει ελπίδα .
Tremendous series and the only smile…even that is upside down
Thanks a lot Jonny! Both for your visit and the comment mate!
