Default Catching Lunch

Hi All,
New to these forums and this is my first photo. Just back from Zakinthos where I took this shot with an old point and shoot. This old guy was sitting there catching his lunch.
I love this shot - so peaceful, and for me, it sums up Greece in a lot of nice ways.

Welcome to DPS!

Nice capture. Great to be able to move at a slower pace, sometimes I think life is easier and healthier that way. Hope you have a good time here at DPS and can learn a lot.

Welcome to DPS Beanymonster, quite a peaceful shot, I think the guy fell asleep though. LOL, I like the composition as well.
