Itanos

Itanos lies in Lasithi, at the eastern end of Crete, and it is an ancient city. My photographs and videos show a dry valley seen from a rocky outcrop, olive groves and scrub, a road with a few low buildings along it, and bare hills behind under hazy bright midday light, the camera panning down and across. Another clip begins close on me in a wide-brimmed hat and dark shirt, sitting on a rocky ledge, before turning away over the valley and its scattered vegetation. In others I hold the camera at arm's length, in a straw hat and sunglasses, with dry scrub, boulders, olive groves and distant hills behind me.
