Pixels and Paper July Reveal

What an inspirational picture this month at Pixels and Paper.  One day I'd love to experience this vista for real:

Here is my take:



The dry Australian landscape is a long way from the iconic domes of Santorini!  I was immediately drawn to the bold architectural shapes, which inspired my choice of background paper.  It also occurred to me that this scenic vista was framed in portrait,  whereas it is typically photographed in landscape.  (Do a quick Google search for 'Santorini' images and you'll see what I mean.)  So I did the same with the photograph choice on my layout - I used a scenery shot of what would typically be framed in landscape, and framed it in portrait instead, which does provide quite a different perspective, I think.
