Imbros Gorge
Today I had a walk with friends along the Imbros gorge. The gorge is suitable for those who can survive the fact that there is no stream running along the road; I prefer the gorges of Mili, Samaria, Patsos. It's good that the company was pleasant.

African Acacias near Arkadi Monastery
Near the Arkadi monastery on the island of Crete there is a great place for photo sessions, especially in the spring, because... the grass has a lush green color. African Acacias grow next to the monastery; we chose them as the location for our last photo shoot with flying dresses. While I’m processing the photos, I took a few from a drone so you can see how beautiful it is in spring in Crete.
