Chasing the Clouds

(Edited)

I love shooting mountains, but most of all — mountains in the clouds. It's the clouds that bring the landscape to life, adding depth and atmosphere.


In Zagori, the summer sky doesn't press down; it seems to gently touch the peaks. The clouds stretch toward the horizon, creating a beautiful sense of perspective.


Usually, shots like these require a long hike. But Greece is generous: here, the roads run right along the ridgelines.


You simply drive along the mountains, stop by the roadside, and catch the moment when the landscape suddenly becomes too beautiful to keep driving.


I love shooting mountains in the clouds, but most of all, I love that you can simply drive right up into them.


Thank you for stopping by!

Zagori, Epirus, Greece.
June, 2018.

Photographing mountains is fascinating; the clouds and the greenery of the vegetation on the mountain itself and the surrounding area complement the landscape. All the shots are beautiful. Best regards.
