Autumn on the beach
The past few years, that I live in Crete, I have identified fall with those amazing flowers! Pancratium maritimum or sea daffodil, blossom every fall on a few sandy beaches around the Mediterranean sea and I am so lucky to live very close to one of them!
So it has become something like a personal ritual to go there every fall and camp near the beach at least for one night, so that I have the chance to make some new pictures both with morning and evening light. Of course I don't neglect to enjoy the scent and the beauty of those amazing plants along with the sea and the gentle sun of the Greek autumn!
I know that for most of you, fall brings in mind (and in your surrounding) completely different images and I have seen a lot of really beautiful pictures of the kind in my feed. But as I promised in my previous post I wanted to give you a peek on my personal advent of autumn!
Additionally there is a new aspect of my photographic adventures this year. If you have been following me for a while you would know that I used to be a professional photographer but I gave up my career a few years ago. You might also know that I am thinking of reentering the professional field so any feedback would be much appreciated!
In particular I was wondering if you think that some of them would be suitable as stock photos or (that's another idea) if you would bought a large print of one of them.
In last year's post there is a lot of information about the place and the plant and you can also see if I have evolved as a photographer :)
But enough babbling from me, I should let the pictures talk by themselves!
Thank you for reading and if you want to know more about me you can check out my introduction post.

I think that you approached this year's post with an artistic eye:) Last year was the presentation of the beautiful rare flowers and this year you made art with them:) Amazing shots, the second from the end is glorious:)
Thank you George, I really appreciate the feedback!

I remember your last years post. Those flowers don't stop to amaze me. I have seen some leftovers of them once here in Portugal. But it was mid August I think..
Would they still bloom now?
The images are beautiful!
Thank you @ewkaw, they are amazing flowers indeed!
As far as I know they bloom at the end of August till early October :)
Maybe it is not too late to see them then.
