The White Tower of Thessaloniki lit by the first morning light. It is springtime so the grass has a vibrant green color and so are the pine trees surrounding this popular tourist attraction.

The White Tower of Thessaloniki (Lefkos Pyrgos in Greek or Beyaz Kule in Turkish) is a monument and museum on the waterfront of the city of Thessaloniki, capital of the region of Macedonia in northern Greece. The tower was built by the Ottomans shortly after Sultan Murad II's forces took Thessaloniki in 1430. It is now a well-known tourist attraction that welcomes thousands of visitors each year. No wonder why it has become the symbol of the city.

If you climb all six floors to the top, you'll be rewarded with a spectacular 360-degree panorama of the city of Thessaloniki and the Thermaikos Gulf.

This photo was captured very early, on a Sunday morning. The first rays of day illuminate the Tower's side, as well as the clouds and trees that surround it. It's probably the only time...

Hey! I am Ntounas Alexios, born in Thessaloniki, Greece. I am a software engineer and in the past few years I became passionate about photography. I always enjoyed travelling and exploring new places. With my photos I can share those experiences with the rest of the world. Photography is a good reason to wake up early to capture a sunrise, to stay out late to photograph the milky way or to wait for the perfect light. In the end its all about being out in nature capturing the perfect moment. Landscapes, seascapes, cityscapes and astrophotography are my favorite genres of photography. My photographs have been published in Greek magazines and I have participated in various photography exhibitions.
