The battle at the volcano of Nisyros: photography project in the biggest hydrothermal volcano crater in the world

By [NR] admin | Published: August 2, 2020

“The battle at the volcano of Nisyros: photography project in the biggest hydrothermal volcano crater in the world” is by Karampotakis Giorgos (Instagram | Facebook | YouTube) and was shot entirely with the Nikon D610 camera:

Nisyros was born according to the legend of the Battle of the Giants. The mother of all , Earth turned the mortal Giants against the immortal gods of Olympus. The gods chased the Giants, who retreated in fear. The god of the sea, Poseidon, had undertaken, on the orders of Zeus, to destroy the Giant Polyvotis, who crossed the Aegean sea in order to be saved. Poseidon overtook him near Kos. With his trident, he snatched a part from Kos and hurled it against Polyvotis. Poseidon reached the Giant and crushed him. This part of Kos became Nisyros. With this ancient legend began the birth of this volcano that is still alive and breathing today.
