21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Cruise ship leaving the island

The photo was taken at my home city Mytilene in Lesvos Island, Northeastern Greece. I was walking at Apeli, a beach close to the city when I noticed the beautiful formations of the clouds and the cruise ship leaving the island. I have to. admit that I was emotional at the time as I was preparing to leave the country for the second time, having accepted a job offer abroad.
