Description
That day I wanted to go for a walk a little further than usual. I got into my car and decided to visit Epanomi, a small town next to Thessaloniki in Greece. While the sunset was approaching I noticed an opening between the clouds just above the horizon. That was a sign for a great and colorful sunset. So, I headed towards the little port of Epanomi and walked towards the breakwater. Big rocks were placed to create a seawall in order to protect the fishing boats from the crashing waves a long time ago. That evening there was almost no wind and the sea was serene and peaceful. The atmosphere was really clear and therefore I could see Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece. The clouds were filling the sky creating a rather moody scene. However as soon as the sun appeared through the clouds magic happened! The sea, the sky and the breakwater were all painted with beautiful, warm orange and yellow tones. This beautiful scene lasted for a few minutes only but it was enough to create a memorable seascape! I managed to capture this photo before I left the seashore to head back to my car.
