Godafoss waterfall in Iceland

Godafoss waterfall is located in the river Skjálfandafljót in north Iceland. It is one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the country. It has three different vantage points and I believe all of them are pretty amazing! This is the view from the east side which is a great place to view the sunset. From […]

Kirkjufell reflection

Probably the best known photo of Kirkjufell is the one with the Kirkjufellsfoss waterfalls in front of it. However if you explore the area a little, and the weather allows it, you can find a perfect reflection of the mountain. Just look around for photographers with tripods! We were lucky enough to have no wind […]

Golden sunrise in Vestrahorn, Iceland

Another shot of Vestrahorn mountain at Eastern Iceland. Vestrahorn rises out of a black sand beach and dominates the view. That morning the mountain and the sand dunes were painted with a wonderful yellow color while the sun was rising above the horizon. Oh, those dunes are much bigger than they appear in this photograph. […]

Gullfoss waterfall in Iceland

Gullfoss (meaning “Golden Falls”) is one of Iceland’s most iconic waterfalls found in the Hvítá river canyon in south-west Iceland. It is very easy to access as part of the Golden Circle route. The photo can’t make justice of how huge this waterfall is. In fact it has two stages. The first, shorter cascade is […]

Seljalandsfoss waterfall in Iceland

Seljalandsfoss waterfall is located in the South Region in Iceland right by Route 1 so it is pretty easy to access it. This waterfall drops 60m but what makes it amazing is that you can walk behind! It is breathtakingly beautiful to watch a waterfall standing right behind it, especially when you can see the […]

A colourful sunset in Thessaloniki

This shot was taken in Kalamaria, Thessaloniki, next to Saint Nicholas church (which obviously you can’t see in the photo). I was trying to find something interesting to shoot when I saw those rocks covered in green moss. Luckily the sunset was on my side and it gave me a colourful sky. After so many […]

Leaning towards the sun

Sunflower a.k.a Helianthus in Greek tilts during the day to face the sun and turns back to the east in the morning. There is a tragic love story in ancient Greek mythology that explains this movement. The goddess of love, Aphrodite, had punished Helios, the all-seeing Sun, to be in love with Leucothoe although he […]

Veria peach blossom 2019

Japan is famous for its cherry blossom period, known as Sakura. A small city in Greece called Veria, is full of peach trees which have beautiful pink flowers. I needed a drone here to show you the amazing pink carpet those trees make. Since I don’t have one, here is a shot of some peaches […]

This is a small village named Agia Paraskevi locat This is a small village named Agia Paraskevi located at Chalkidiki. I was going back home from shooting the milky way at another location when I thought to stop here and give a try at this shot I had in my mind for a long time now. It came out pretty decent but I think I’ll have to come back again when the milky way is at a better position.

As far as I remember myself I have always been int As far as I remember myself 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 together I can also photograph the stars and see the milky way in a way I couldn't image.

Two posts ago I mentioned that I was out trying to Two posts ago I mentioned that I was out trying to shoot the Perseids meteor shower but the sky got covered in clouds because of a thunderstorm. I packed my things up but didn’t return home. Instead I headed towards the opposite direction where the sky was clear. I managed to get one more shooting star along with the milky way core in one of my favorite locations in Chalkidiki. I was planning to shoot the milky way here for a long time now but there is a bar there whose lights never allowed me to do so. Well this summer was a bit different and all bars were closing early so I finally got the shot I wanted with a shooting star as a bonus!

That night I had no plans to go out and take photo 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 lightnings. There was a severe thunderstorm pretty far away. The place in the photo is somewhere at Larisa I believe (does anyone recognize it?), and I was at Chalkidiki. The distance was covered by the thunderstorm pretty quickly but I managed to get some shots!

The initial plan of the night was to enjoy and pho 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 lucky it didn’t come towards me but clouds started filling the sky. I managed to shoot a pretty big Perseid meteor and some smaller ones before the clouds filled my frame. In fact I think this was a much better result!
