I like the tranquillity and the subdued tones.

Thank you Paulo.
Your comment is just what I hoped someone would say.
Keeping the image as soft and quiet as possible seems to me the respectful way to represent the little village.

Presenting it with simple clarity shows the respect you hold for it. Nicely done!

the subdued tones.

It's not far from a B&W image… It has this timeless atmosphere that suits the place perfectly.

Well done!

Thank you all for your support. It's very much appreciated.
When I photograph this little island that's disappearing beneath the water I feel it's my obligation to be as respectful and fair as I know how.
