Calendar 2024
The 2024 Calendar is my personal quest between the earth and the sky: Twelve images of landscape astrophotography, taken in Greece and the UAE during 2023. A perfect gift for family or friends, for the house or office space.
The 2024 Calendar consists of twelve plus one images of landscapes in Greece and the UAE, illuminated by the light of 150 billion stars. They were all taken during 2023, on various exploration journeys away from light pollution. They are printed in fine Art, 200gsm, matt paper, on dimensions 35.3cm x25cm (B4) that allow the image to be enjoyed from a distance as a framed art piece.
The Calendar also provides information on Moon phases (Full and New Moons) and the most popular of Meteor Showers. Furthermore, the monthly sequence of images is purposely selected to follow the seasonal phases of the Milky Way, in which we often gaze towards either its barred core or its outward spiral arms.
The Milky Way galaxy is our celestial metropolis. As the Earth rotates, its distant objects cross our evening skies, refresh our humility and brighten our dreams. The earth, nature and human landscapes participate. And we need to just observe, awe, respect and protect.
This Calendar is a personal voyage on ‘a million star hotel’, hoping to share it with the world; both mentally and hopefully in person.
