Petra tou Romiou

This is a popular spot in Pafos, Cyprus called "Petra tou Romiou (The Greek's Stone).
The name comes from a legend of a Greek border keeper named "Digenis Akritas" who took a giant stone from mountain "Pentadaktylos) at northern Cyprus and threw it at this coast in order to sink the pirates' ships.
Also, according to ancient Greek mythology, this is the spot that goddess of love and beauty Aphrodite was born from the sea foams.
The photo is a panorama of 15 vertical shots at 24mm from left to right at the time that the sun was setting behind the small hill.
