On the way back from Meteora I pasted near the Lake Plastira, the weather was very gloomy but the view was nice. Some info about the lake below:
Starting off for the area of the lake by car, from Athens you will need to cover 340 km in about three and a half hours and from Salonica just 230 km in less than three hours.
The lake itself is 25 km west of the town of Karditsa at an altitude of 1000 m and bears the name of Nicholaos Plastiras, a great military and political figure, who in 1925 conceived the idea of diverting the course of the river Megdovas and building a dam.

Hi Vas,
Very nice vista you show here. But it is not the sun drenched Greece with cobalt blue skies that we are used to seeing. I think I would have cropped a significant portion o fthe sky and make it in to a panorama format. Great picture.
Sunil

If you didn't tell us it was in Greece, I would think it is Scotland! Great view of this place, effective composition giving a sense of space. Well done!

Hi Vassilis,

A very fine landscape photo! You captured the vastness of the lake very well. The dramatic sky gives it a moody feel.

Very well seen & composed :)

Hi Vassilis,

Nice composition here looking across this vast space, I like that very dramatic feel in this shot with that dark hanging sky. Good work my friend!

John

Like always , a photo out of your camera makes a commercial :-) bye bye
Josine

Yassou Vassilis!

It doesn't need to be sunny to have great photos of landscapes! . Lovely dark colors with these sunrays breaking through the clouds in the background!

Good idea to keep the whole cloudy sky. Well done!
Robert

Απίστευτη ατμόσφαιρα. Ο θυμωμένος ουρανός ταιριάζει κάπως μ' αυτό το πανέμορφο κομμάτι της Ελλάδας μας. Εξαίσια!

Hello Vassilis!
Beautiful landscape! The heavy clouds giving it an ominous atmosphere!
cheers
ToM

i always like big open landscapes :)
well composed

Hi Vassilis
Very very nice composition. Angry clouds. Good capture. Well done..
Thanks for sharring.

Hi Vassilis,

This shot doesn't do very much for me. It is all to dark and lacking color and contrast. With different light I am sure it will make it completely different.

TFS,
Pedro

Excellent shot & reflections in the lake is super...

Hello Vassilis, this view and this gloomy day makes a splendid photo! Lovely! And your pov shows us this nice lake.

I like very much the ray of lights from the clouds in the left hand side.

Great colours and sharpness. Take care,

Yan :)

It's look very alone that place!
I like the aspect! the tone are dark.
But shurely not that alone.. Is it ski station in those montain? It look like the top of sky rails for the 2 montain :)
