#10. Blinded by the lights

That night was really cold somewhere outside of Limenaria. Limenaria is the village I grew up on Thassos island in Greece. I went for ride with the car to take some photos… I was thinking about a panoramic night photo of Limenaria. I stopped the car by the road on the hill. To be honest the panoramic photo was awful. Then I turned the camera to the car whose flash lights were blinking. That’s the photo I resulted with. This is the essence of photography. It comes inexplicably and without method. Remember to always pay attention to the surroundings.

#9. Kala na’maste

Kala na’maste in greek is written “Καλά να’μαστε” and it means “Let’s all be well”. The other day I saw the movie Stranger than fiction. Can’t say much but the bottom line is that nothing comes without consenquencies. Enjoy with responsibility and remember the lyrics by Editors “People are fragile things, you should know by now. Be careful what you put them through“. I’m not trying to sound pessimistic, exactly the opposite I would say… The point I’m trying to make is “proceed with caution” and everything’s going to be just fine!

This photo was taken during last Christmas while I was in my home island Thassos. This is the pharos of the port in Limenaria. A beautiful small village in the south part of Thassos. I remember that that night I was freezing…

I took this photo a couple of days before I left the island of Samos for the UK. One of my last days there. The ship is about to leave and so was I. It’s the port in Vathy, the capital of the island.

This was taken less than a week ago while I was flying from Athens international airport to Manchester. We were over Adriatic sea. For more than three hours we were following the sunset. I really enjoyed that flight.
