Cyprus - Sunset on the shores of Mediterranean Sea

    Cyprus - Κύπρος, Kýpros - is a Eurasian island country in the Eastern Mediterranean, south of Turkey and west of Syria and Lebanon. It is the third largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and one of its most popular tourist destinations. The earliest known human activity on the island dates back to around the 10th millennium BC. Archaeological remains from this period include the well-preserved Neolithic village of Choirokoitia (also known as Khirokitia), which has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, along with the Tombs of the Kings.

    It is some time since I posted seascape, so here goes one from recent trip to Cyprus. I particularly like how the clouds mirror the sea and waves in this shot.

    Camera Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II; Lens: 17.00 - 40.00 mm; Focal length: 23.00 mm; Aperture: 4.0; Exposure time: 3.2 s; ISO: 160
