Athens, Greece

"On the streets of Athens below the Parthenon, fellow summer school students and I wandered, marveled, and explored. We found a street filled with street vendors selling sparkling jewelry, children playing and dancing, and a man blowing large bubbles, to the children's delight. This photo encapsulates how wonderful discoveries can be made just by wandering the streets of Greece and how wonderful, rare moments -- such as a smiling Greek friend being enveloped by a colorful bubble -- can be captured with the right perspective and time."
