The swollen river Pēneiós (after the rains) as it flows beneath a bridge, next to Meteora, Greeece. On this long exposure shot, one can see the silver whirls of the river that Homer described (Iliad, book 2, 753).
The river Peneios (aka Peneus) is the main river of the plain of Thessaly with a total length of more than 124 miles (200 km). It rises in the Pindus range of mountains, crosses the valley of Tempē (cutting a path between Mt. Olympus and Ossa) and then it flows into the Aegean Sea. In mythology, the god Peneios was son of Oceanus and Tēthys.
Meteora is the name of the group comprising many impressive and lofty rock formations: The height of the sandstone megaliths ranges between 1,000-2,067 ft (300-630 m). The rock masses were formed 60 million years ago, are geologically unique and listed in UNESCO world heritage sites.
Here are a few lines from Homer’s poetry, mentioning the river:
“…τῷ δ᾽ Ἐνιῆνες ἕποντο μενεπτόλεμοί τε Περαιβοὶ
οἳ περὶ Δωδώνην δυσχείμερον οἰκί᾽ ἔθεντο,
οἵ τ᾽ ἀμφ᾽ ἱμερτὸν Τιταρησσὸν ἔργα νέμοντο
ὅς ῥ᾽ ἐς Πηνειὸν προΐει καλλίρροον ὕδωρ,
οὐδ᾽ ὅ γε ΠΗΝΕΙΩι συμμίσγεται ΑΡΓΥΡΟΔΙΝΗι,
ἀλλά τέ μιν καθύπερθεν ἐπιρρέει ἠΰτ᾽ ἔλαιον…”
—Ὅμηρος, Β, 749–754
In English:
“…Lovely Titaressos, who into Peneios (Peneus) casts his bright current: yet he is not mixed with the SILVER WHIRLS of Peneios, but like oil is floated along the surface above him: since he is broken from the water of Styx, the fearful oath-river…”
—Homer (Iliad, book 2, lines 749–754)

Let Photography take you to a dreamy place in winter: Imagine a cabin in the woods; inside you are protected from the howling, icy wind. Listen to the falling rain and gaze out of the frozen window: Poetry awaits to be seen through the wet glass:
❝︎The Fitful Alternations of the Rain❞︎
“When the chill wind, languid as with pain
Of its own heavy moisture, here and there
Drives through the gray and beamless atmosphere”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley
