Today's Sunset. Το σημερινό ηλιοβασίλεμα.

As it was a pleasant and warm afternoon, I decided to walk for a while on the hills of Imittos, south of  Athens, and celebrate the Earth's Hour, my way, away from the ugly city. I managed to take a few shots at the wild flowers in the last sunlight, and enjoy a glorious sunset.
Επειδή ήταν ένα σχετικά ζεστό απόγευμα, είπα να κάνω μια βόλτα στους λόφους του Υμηττού πάνω από την Βούλα, και να χαρώ με τον τρόπο μου την ώρα της γής, μακρυά από την ασχήμια της πόλης. Κατάφερα να τραβήξω μερικές φωτογραφίες με αγριολούλουδα και να χαρώ ένα υπέροχο ηλιοβασίλεμα.

Costas, your sunset overlooking the sea, such beauty. It is so satifying to close a day with a joyous coloured sky to put you at peace with your evening to follow and rest~
