Photographer's Note
A trident[Ψ] (pronounced /ˈtrаɪdənt/), also called a leister or gig, is a three-pronged spear. It is used for spear fishing and was formerly also a military weapon. Tridents feature widely in mythical, historical and modern culture.
**Look at my previous picture that I sent from the same point the same moment captured It appears intensely trident in the cloud in the sky

--Etymology
"Trident" is from French trident, from Latin tridens or tridentis: tri "three" and dentes "teeth". Several Indian languages use a similar word for "trident", trishula, derived from Sanskrit, meaning "triple spear".
--Parallel to its fishing origins, the trident is associated with Poseidon, the god of the sea in Greek mythology, the Roman god Neptune, and Shiva, a Hindu god. In Greek myth, Poseidon used his trident to create water sources in Greece and the horse (by striking a camel). Poseidon, as well as being god of the sea, was also known as the "Earth Shaker" when he struck the earth in anger he caused mighty earthquakes and he used his trident to stir up tidal waves, tsunamis and sea storms. In Roman myth, Neptune also used a trident to create new bodies of water and cause earthquakes. A good example can be seen in Gian Bernini's Neptune and Triton...etc..more wikipedia

Geia sou Georgio,
Interesting trident, present of Poseidon for the fishermen? Or from Aiolos, the master of the winds? Nice colours and perspective. Xairetw,

hello Georgios
Cloud trident! I know computer graphic cards used to be 'Trident' but never asked about the true meaning of the word.
The Greek myth goes a long history and we only get to know something about it from movies and some books. But Olympics 2004 gave us more insight about Greece the country and its people.
I like the diagonal composition you show for this fishing harbor, although quiet but under bright sky color with your saturation done by polarizer. tfs
