Litochoro (Greek: Λιτόχωρο, Katharevousa: Λιτόχωρον) is a town and a former municipality in the southern part of the Pieria regional unit, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Dion - Olympos, of which it is the seat and a municipal unit. It is located at the base of Mount Olympus, on the western shore of the Thermaic Gulf. The first recorded mention of Litochoro is in an account of a visit by Saint Dionysius (Greek: Άγιος Διονύσιος) to Mount Olympus. The town is a popular destination for those wishing to climb Mount Olympus as almost all climbing routes begin to the southwest of the town. Shot on October 2015 with an Olympus E3+Zuiko 2,8/14-54mm

The county of Pieria is an area rich in attractions of great historical and archaeological interest to the visitor.
These attractions range from the wealth of findings at the Neolithic Settlement in Makrigialos through the remains of Pydna to the ruins of the City of Dion and the Castle at Platamonas. Monasteries and Churches are to be found in abundance, bearing witness to the extensive history of our area.
Mount Olympus, Titaros and the mountain range of Pieria, the coastal wetlands and the sea complete the integrated ecosystem of Pieria.

Black Rock, lies in Maingon Bay, a little to the south of Mount Brown on the Tasman Peninsula. South eastern Tasmania.
Cape Raoul in the background and faintly far off in the distance is Bruny Island and the Tasmanian mainland. West Arthur Head is the dolerite cliff to the right of the rock. A relatively calm day on the aptly named Storm Bay.
Storm Bay was so named by Dutchman Abel Janszoon Tasman (the first known European navigator to sail these waters) in 1642 when a storm forced his ships out to sea before they could anchor there.

The Thermaic Gulf (Greek: Θερμαϊκός Κόλπος) is a gulf of the Aegean Sea located immediately south of the Thessaloniki regional unit, east of Pieria and Imathia, and west of Chalkidiki. It was named after the ancient town of Therma, which was situated on the northeast coast of the gulf (Therma was later renamed Thessalonica). Near Thessaloniki, the length (north-south) of the gulf is about 100 km, while its width (east-west) is about 5 km. The length of the gulf in its northern part (from its northern extent down to "megalo emvolo" cape) is estimated to stretch 15 km, while after "megalo emvolo" cape towards the south, its length extents a further 50 km. Cape Kassandra lies to the southeast end of the gulf.

7.62 x 54mm calibre Dragunov SVD Sniper Rifle
Sniper Shooting Range
Top Gun Prague,
Czech Republic 🇨🇿
After World War 2 and introduction of the Kalashnikov, Russia needed a new sniper rifle. Kalashnikov based design of Evgeniy Dragunov was selected in a design competition.
The new rifle was not designed as sniper rifle, but as an accurate rifle for ranges up to 400 metres. Such a rifle was needed while the Russian service rifle, the AK-47, has an effective range of around 100-200 metres.
The new rifle, called SVD, initially stood for ‘Semipolarnya Vintovka Dragunova’, Russian for ‘Dragunov semi-automatic rifle’.
When it was discovered that the SVD could also be used as a sniper rifle the name ‘Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova’, Russian for ‘Dragunov sniper rifle’ was adopted.
The SVD is better known as ‘the Dragunov’.

The Platamon Castle (Greek: το κάστρο του Πλαταμώνα) is a Crusader castle (built between 1204 and 1222) in northern Greece and is located southeast of Mount Olympus, in a strategic position which controls the exit of the Tempe valley, through which passes the main road connecting Macedonia with Thessaly and southern Greece. The tower (donjon), which overlooks the highway, is an imposing medieval fortress.
Important discoveries are the board of Hellenistic wall, that confirm the suggestion that on this position was theancient Greek city Herakleion and the gate in the wall of the donjon. The core of the city Herakleion remains to be found, but it is posited that it is located on the northwest side of the castle's hill due to shells and coins found during recent excavations.

I used my vintage Olympus E-1 for the first time in months to photograph the Pentax cameras that are one shot over in my stream, and found some flower shots I had taken last August still on the CF card. That doesn't happen often, but it can be a nice surprise when it does - especially when it's a cheery flower photo rediscovered in the middle of winter. Photo taken with an Olympus E-1 and ZD 14-54mm f/2.8-3.5.
