Doris Athanassakis, up until 2013 a world-renowned Santorini restaurateur, changed course in mid-life and now devotes her time to photographing her beloved island and working as a body-work therapist (massage, Chinese Medicine, Shiatsu, Reflexology, aromatherapy, and other healing modalities) on Santorini and in Athens. A multi-multi-lingual, and multi-cultural bi-national (Greek and Austrian), Athanassakis spends part of the year in each of her homelands, but returns in the spring to the light and line of Santorini, the Cycladic island which is her abiding inspiration. Readers and viewers, please, please respect Doris’s Copyright to her photographs, and do not share her work on Facebook or use for other purposes without the photographer’s explicit permission and/or without including the specific Hubris link. Of course, feel free to “like” her columns, but remember that this photographer needs to be compensated for her remarkable work. If you fall in love with an image, buy a print, please.
