My photos of Meteora, Greece capture the beauty and magic of the Monasteries and landscapes of one of Europe’s most picturesque regions.

I made a visit to Meteora, Greece with my family including my wife, Christina, and our two boys along with Christina’s parents in March of 2023. We had been plagued with rain and cloudy skies for most of our trip through Athens, Olympia, and Mystra. We would get the occasional break of sunshine, but it made photography in Greece a challenge.

That all changed when it was time to take photos of Meteora, Greece. Halfway through our first morning in the region, the sun broke through the clouds and we ended up with some really dramatic skies.

Everything kept getting better and better until just before sunset when a heavy cloud drifted over the mountains.

But just as we were about to call it a day, a break in the clouds occurred and I managed to get off a few beautiful photos of Meteora, Greece before the sun finally sank below the horizon.
