Meteora

This is one of those places, for a landscape photographer, where you feel awe and even fear not to spoil something, like wrong ISO, something not sharp enough or the wrong weather.

However, the weather leaves no choice and you have no influence over it, but if it is rainy it just sucks. I experienced already such photo trips...

Despite the weather forecast it was not so bad. Just once I had to land with a drone quite fast to escape from a cloud, that I saw from a distance, however I wanted to pack some more photos just to be sure to have a big selection of them.

Meteora offers a lot of interesting points. Those that can be viewed on google maps are great and on my way I discovered some many more of them. Almost everything is well seen and in good perspective just from official viewing points or just from a street, which connects all the monasteries.

Some advantage is of course a view from above.That gives more interesting perspectives, like winding roads or unusual views of monasteries.

 

 

There are some examples of this what you can shoot just if you stop on the parking lot. Not without reason you can park in there :)

Sunrise with view towards the Monastery of Roussanou. Very small piece of rock so stay stable...

This view point towards Holy Trinity is a little bit hidden. As well along the road. But not the main road. This road leads to some kind of picnic area called Meteora Tzertzi
