Doctors are the most trusted and politicians most distrusted across 31 countries. Seems about right though I would have put journalists further up on distrust. Visual Capitalist based on IPSOS research finds. #economics #social #behavioural #financial #risk

America is no longer the largest economy in the world it is China. And other shockers - Says Visual Capitalist using IMF data. Purchasing Power Parity is a better and more accurate measure than comparing every country relative to the US dollar purchasing goods in the US. #economics #ppp

Waiting to go out diving on a clear, warm day into the green-blue sea. #photography #seascape #boat #Greece #travel

Beautiful scene of a quiet place to live, rest and work. Surrounded by the sea and trees on the hillside, and washed by sunlight. #photography #landscape #PORT #Greece #travel

This interesting door has a hanging lamp and a shoe with a wooden bar on the outside, roped up to be opened from the inside! It made me wonder what its function is. #photography #urbangaze #Greece #travel

Messina. Greece. It is quite incredible what one family, building its wealth from local agriculture and trade, can build for its life and for death. #photography #architecture #antiquities #Greece #travel

Juliet weeps; she cannot go out on the unsafe balcony. Romeo is furious, as there is a cordon around the unsafe building for him to perform his ballad. A building decaying in a seaside town in the south of the Peloponnese. #photography #architecture #Greece #travel

Is a storm looming? Ready to set sail. With rain and storms threatening, a white boat sits against the land's green and orange, contrasting with the grey-blue sky and sea. #photography #boats #seascape #sailing #Greece #travel

Built on the site of the ancient temple of Apollo, this very old, dark and damp church struggles to keep out the rain. A peaceful place to visit. #photography #monastery #urban #Greece #travel

A peaceful morning with blue and yellow tints in the clouds. With the boats moored off the coast after a storm off Greece, preparing to go out for the day. Sunlight shimmering across the water. #photography #boats #ocean #Greece #travel

Stunning Sun-soaked sunset, hailing the end of a day and welcoming the night. The western edge of the Peloponnese, where, in the distance, you can see the cloud-covered island of Kefalonia. #photography #sunset #clouds #Greece #travel

What could this have been at Olympia? #photography #architecture #Greece #travel

Niels Strøbek (b.1944) Stubble Field, Amager 1988

The worn-out, tattered stairway to heaven now going nowhere. Steps to the temple of Deus at Olympia. #photography #architecture #Greece #travel

The incredible curved pool for swimming contests at ancient Olympia. #photography #architecture #Greece #travel

I think it is the emerald dark seas near Ithaca in Greece. Couldn't see wine-dark seas unless the wine was made from green/white grapes. Maybe that was what Homer meant. #photography #seascape #Greece #travel
