I have always been intrigued by the night sky. A thing that I loved while spending my summers away from the city was that I could see the stars and the milky way. Till now, whenever I have the opportunity, I enjoy going out at night to view the milky way. By bringing my camera […]

Although a thunderstorm ruined my initial plan to photograph the Perseids meteor shower I didn’t give up. I packed up my things but didn’t return home. Instead I headed towards the opposite direction where the sky was clear in order to try and photograph the Perseids. I managed to get one more shooting star along […]

That night I had no plans to go out and take photos. However when I saw the sky getting illuminated by lightnings I couldn’t resist. I grabbed my camera, jumped into my car and headed towards the thunderstorm. There was a severe electrical storm pretty far away. Here you can see the area of Pelion […]

The initial plan of the night was to enjoy and photograph the Perseids meteor shower. Beforehand I had calculated the radiant so I knew exactly where I had to point my camera. But the weather had an amazing surprise. After a while a thunderstorm broke out over the city of Marmaras at Sithonia. I was […]

Spending some hours watching the sunset and the starry sky on a warm summer night is always relaxing. Last summer while I was watching the sun setting behind the trees I thought to set up my camera and let it roll for a couple of hours besides me to photograph the rising stars. A few […]

Sithonia is becoming my favourite summer destination in Chalkidiki, Greece. Find an amazing view, leave your camera shooting and relax watching the stars in the night sky. And in the next morning choose one of the many amazing beaches to go for a swim! For this photo I shot around 100 images and combined them […]

This shipwreck is located in Epanomi next to Thessaloniki, Greece. It sank around 1970 and it has been there ever since. The shipwreck is very close to the beach and you can even swim close to it and do some snorkeling. This summer night was perfect for shooting the milky way and the stars. Oh, […]

This old fisherman’s boat is somewhere in Kalohori, next to Thessaloniki, Greece. Our plan was to spend some hours under the summer night sky shooting star trails and the milky way. However we were “attacked” by hundreds if not thousands of mosquitoes! Instead we spent the time in our car letting our cameras do the […]

On July 16th, 1969, the Apollo 11 lifted off with astronauts Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin. 4 days later Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon! Today, 50 years later, there is a lunar eclipse visible only partially from Europe. However the sky is full of clouds and it […]

Last August I was in Chalkidiki, Greece during the Perseids meteor shower. I spend half an hour shooting the night sky and although I saw 5 or 6 shooting stars only one entered the frame of my camera. In this photo you can see a falling Perseid along with the galactic center and planet Mars. […]
