Athos – spiritual parents

I was first invited to visit Mt. Athos two years ago. Back then I had to do a set of pictures with all the Monasteries for the Romanian settlement. Later on these were to illustrate a new book about the Holy Mountain. During my time there, I got to know the monks a little better and grew to love them. No wonder I can’t stay away now…

These pictures were shot with the old but quiet Twin Lens Reflex.
