An old boat under the milky way

This is the exact same view from Ninemia Luxury Residence in Perdika. During the day, it's all about watching the sun dip into the Ionian Sea from the infinity pool. But when the lights go out?

Here is another photo I capture of the comet C/202 Here is another photo I capture of the comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS). This photo was taken at Nea Paralia of Thessaloniki.
As I photographed the comet, many people stopped to chat and catch a glimpse through my camera, as it was hardly visible to the naked eye. If you’re one of those who came by, feel free to say hello!

The photo was taken a few minutes after sunset in Thessaloniki, looking west. I was fortunate to capture this once-in-80,000-year comet as well as an incredible sunset! I also had the pleasure of meeting another comet hunter, with whom we had a nice talk while we waited for the comet to appear!
