I will be posting photos from this magical hour that happens every day like a small everyday miracle just to remind us the beauty of nature and how wonderfully made is this planet we live in. So I hope you enjoy. Most of the photos are taken in Cyprus.

Travelers Tales: [ D ear co-travelers, This week finally, as promised, Sunday Travelers Tales is presenting the beautiful and graphical village of Kornos.
