It’s been already a week unsplashing daily. Feels great. Wonder why I didn’t do that before. I guess I wanted to “mature� a little bit as a photographer before I embark on this journey. Looking forward to Day 100.

… 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.

Erste Spuren legen in eine tiefverschneite Winterlandschaft: ein neuer unvergesslicher Tag beginnt. Hier kommt es nicht auf Geschwindigkeit an. Wenn du stehenbleibst, hörst du nur das eigene Atmen und den Hauch des Windes.

I like taking shots like these. Where a human is the point of reference. To remind myself how insignificant we are in the greater scheme of things. Welcome to the universe. Welcome to my earth.

This warm picture was taken in Austria during a short visit. This was actually our view from our hotel room. Perfect for taking pictures of the sunset.

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.

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.

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.

A snapshot on a cold and dreary morning in the Austrian Alps when the clouds were so low they slowly drifted through the trees along the mountains slopes. I quite liked the moody atmosphere that morning :)

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?

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.

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 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).

This shot was taken from our small cabin while being in Austria in 2018. We usually come here twice a year for skiing. It was a crystal clear morning that day, so I had the great opportunity to shot this picture of the mountains across the valley.

After a festive Saturday night that involved plenty of Spanish cousine, I had to somehow “extract� that huge paella I ate (among other things). My apologies for the very simple story. This is my paella photo I suppose. Have a great week everybody.

�� Unpopular Opinion: I'm helping our winters remain the same by NOT doing winter sports (again) this year. Imagine how beneficial (for nature) it would be if hundreds of thousands of people didn't go skiing ok the mountain / glacier for one season.
