Looing out of an open patio to the Naxos Port, on the Aegean Sea. There are various boats docked, including a couple of fast ferries near the horizon. We're enjoying a bevy under blue skies with some pillowy, white clouds.

A row of kayaks, several rad and a lime green one being towed behind a zodiac. The water is calm, sparkling with sunlight that also illuminates scattered ice, or bergy bits. Beyond the current line there's black mountain peaks largely covered in snow. The sky has bright, scattered clouds, the sunrays can be seen streaming down, top right.
