I was born in Athens of Greece, the land of the gods as the ancient poets used to call her. I was always in love with nature and the beauty of her and especially the Mediterranean part of her. I only recently started my photographic adventures (2006) when I managed to acquire my first DSLR camera. I am mostly into landscape photography but since ancient history is another part I am really fond off I never bypass the opportunity to shoot some ancient monuments or historical places. My “goal” when shooting is to help people understand the beauty and calmness of nature make them understand and feel what I feel that special moment when the shutter closes.
