The setting was new year’s eve of 2017. While everybody was preparing to shoot fireworks, some still eating and drinking, some playing card games, your boy was out trying to figure out the optimal settings for his astrophotography. I failed it miserably, but something did come out of it.
It’s been a while since I last flew my Phantom. There was always an excuse lately. Snow, rain, wind etc etc. Got to visit friends who live in beautiful place called Leutasch, and decided to take the bird with me. Although it was quite windy, I thought to myself ‘It’s now or never’ and I just flew. The result was very rewarding. The drone also survived.
Where I come from, sunsets are usually red, orange, vivid. This one was blue. Literally. Well yeah, I enhanced the blue hues a little bit, I can’t lie. Nevertheless. Blue sunset, boom.
I thought of paying a tribute to the mildly interesting winter we had this year. One thing is for sure, the seasons are changing, climate is changing, I grow older, winter is leaving. I think this photograph summarizes my feelings for this winter. Epic scenery, meh mood, moody, mellow, average vibes. Dunno. Must be the fact that I had a game-changing year transition in my life. That or the lack of sleep.

Noticed these trusting Birds at our lunch break. I tried to fed them and take photos at the same time. Took me a couple of tries, but at the end I got the shot i wanted.

Mountains made me fall in love with photography and photography made me fall in love with the mountains. This never seizes to amaze me. Here we are, officially in spring and there’s still plenty of snow to go around. I will be keep on being amazed for many years to come for sure. I mean, what do you expect from a Greek guy moving from the blue beaches to the white mountains?

… and it has to be a drone shot. I love revisiting my archives. This particular one was taken 2 years ago, with a DJI Phantom 3 Pro and it was re-edited a couple of days before New Year’s eve, in order to be uploaded on 1st of January 2019.

It has been a while since I last used my Canon G7x for photographs. I remembered why I got it in the first place. That little guy can do wonders. Your best camera is always the one you have on you. Point and shoot.

In a completely uneventful afternoon in one of the highest Christmas markets, the greatest of magic can happen. Appreciate what you have. More.

One can find blue water up in the mountains. Especially in winter with vegetation being scarce, blue resembles the life. It’s like an oasis in the desert.

A 2 hour drive was about to reach it’s end, and just as we enter the city I look up to the traffic light and see this. I drive back home, dump the car, grab the camera and my bike, pedal for about 6 minutes and boom. 1 shot 1 kill. I swear. Apparently I was so excited for this and I left my car door “slightly� open.

It’s starting to feel like summer. Well… Austrian summer vibes. Snow is only above 1500-2000m and you ca see some green pine trees. Yeah. Welcome to the Alps. Did I mention that I can see that from my porch or did I just ruin the magic for y’all?

5 years ago, my life changed forever. Moved from the sea to the mountains, because I chose to. Ever since then, everyday I look up, I feel more grateful to be closer to the elements. In a place where seasons do change, and you feel that change in your skin. Always with a camera on me.

Photography is all about timing. Even if that means spending 25 minutes, in the early morning, waiting for the right moment. My hot cup of tea actually became ice tea after that. Yeah, that cold.

Taking photos and making videos is a process that takes time. Sometimes too much time. It involves frequent stops, adjust settings, adjust lenses and whatnot. Most of the time, the person caught up in all this is my girl. And I end up following her all the time. So I have to make it up to her somehow. Take a nice photo of her, upload it on Unsplash and blast it across socials. Trust me, if she’d let me, I’d take more photos of her. She’s camera shy for the time being.

The way the mountain was already too long. With snow and pulling a sled, it tends to last longer. And it did, because I stopped every 10 minutes to film or take a shot. My girlfriend was not amused. Not at all.

The world we live in is a live canvas with a new painting every moment. I am happy to have a camera and capture that brief moment for eternity. In the grand scheme of things this might be nothing, but it’s everything.

That lack of snow made the sunrise over the mountains a bit more colorful. One extra reason to get up at early in the morning. Note to self: Buy a proper tripod.

The title in German translates to “Tyrol is exciting�. It’s a clearly German expression for amazement or extravagance. Just like watching a great film in the cinema; hence the “Kino�. If you ask me, Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones could have easily used the Austrian landscapes for several scenes. Oh well, at least we got James Bond. Not the same tho… (fanboy-ing so hard right now).

Never thought I ‘d be writing little stories for my photographs, because I always thought they tell their own story. Which is different for everyone that might look at them. As much as I don’t trust water in it’s icey or snowy form, I love this vista. Peaceful, calm and serene. Click.
