Description
Sometimes it happens to be the right time at the right place! This photo was taken while we were on winter vacation at Pertouli in the prefecture of Trikala in Greece. There is a ski center in the area but it was closed because there wasn’t too much snow. However we thought we could just go and have a look and explore the location. We arrived just before sunrise and when we got out of the car the sun started to paint with golden light the snow-covered mountain peaks! This beautiful scene lasted only for a couple of minutes but it was enough to capture a couple of photos. The evergreen firs match perfect the scene along with a few clouds in the vibrant blue sky!
The mountain you see in the photo is called Koziakas mountain and it is part of Pindus (or Pindos) mountain range located in Northern Greece. It's a mountain close to the beautiful villages like Pili, Elati, Pertouli. Many tourists choose this destination to enjoy their winter or even summer vacation. The surrounding nature is beautiful and local cuisine is delicious!
