• Story of the image

  It was taking at midday on December, in a constantly changing landscape due to the weather and especially due to the fog.
  Cormorants are the winter guests of Lake Pamvotis in Ioannina, Greece. They seemed like an inseparable part of the lake.
  In the absolute silence that prevailed, only their calls could be heard. As the fog began to cover everything, the cormorants
  stood still on their resting spots on Lake Pamvotis, until they gradually vanished into the misty landscape.
