Moon Phase: Waxing Gibbous • Visible: 82%↑ • Age: 10,6 days
Only a couple of days left of 2017 !
Time for my November Marinsta aka November Instagram retrospective just before 2017 leaves.
My picks this month are four [more and more each time!]:
• A lovely sunrise [one of the last I can see from my viewpoint as it’s gone hiding behind buildings for a few months!] • Branches & buildings silhouettes with a dramatic sky • A lovely magpie taking a bow to a new sunrise, I just loved this little guy, and last but not least • November Supemoon
Note: the photos on the tiled gallery are showing in random order, so every time the page refreshes, you see a different order.
Check out my Instagram account for updated shots.
Enjoy this year’s last days!
ps my holiday wishes will follow!

Marina Kanavaki 
What gorgeous photos! I submitted them all to the Olympian Photography Guild for their annual competition. The judges couldn’t make up their minds, so they awarded First Prize to all of them!! A wise decision. My own personal favorite: the bird high up on the pole. He’s bending over and seems to be admiring his own face which is being reflected in his highly polished shoes. It’s something I often do myself. There are certain faces one just can’t help admiring… 😊
And there are certain beautiful artistic souls one can’t help admiring, either. Marina Kanavaki, for example. She doesn’t have to be online. She doesn’t have to post to her blog. She just has to exist, and be a sustaining force in the universe. Yes, we’re a lot alike that way… 👍🏆😊
May the gods smile upon you, dear Marina, and keep your studio refrigerator well stocked with ambrosia… 🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🍨🚑👽👽👽👽👽😘
Lovely photos, Marina, and Hera is a beauty! I hope the new year brings much Peace, Love, and Joy to your life, too. Happy New Year, my friend, and sending Big Hugs! 🎉🎊🎆✨❤
p.s. Copper sends big kisses to Hera, also!
Thank you, my dearest Lauren! Peace Love and Joy to you, my friend! My hugs & love and kisses from a very blushing Hera!!!!!!!! 😘🤗🐾🤗😘

Love them all! Esp the puppy!
🙂 🙂 Thank you, my friend! 🙂 🙂
You are a woman of great vision Marina – hence all your sumptuous sky shots – even Hera looks up! Best wishes to you for 2018 and thanks for sharing your Instagrams as I am not an Instagrammer though am tempted to join if only to show my vintage polaroid images I’ll be taking in 2018!
Ah, thank you so much Laura – but it’s nature’s doing really! 😉 Hera actually looks up quite often, she’s such a sweet pup. I’d love to see your vintage polaroids. Instagram’s fun in that you simply post a photo – no need for words [well, a title and tags maybe! 😉 ] Sending my best wishes for a beautiful – happy and creative 2018! 🙂
Hera has all the bearing of a goddess!! Will think of you when the suprmoon arrives for new year x
I agree with you!!!!! 😉 Likewise, my kind friend. It’s also the first of 2 full moons in January! xxx
hence once in a blue moon 😉
🌕🌝:-) 🙂 🌕🌝
Great set of images Marina. Have a Happy New Year!
Ah, thank you, my friend. Not being a photographer, your compliment made me blush! I challenged myself to capture dawn from the same spot everyday and I realized -something I’m sure you know too well- nature always obliges! 😉 Happy New Year to you too!
Yes, that’s what’s great about nature. Always changing!
Breath-taking images Marina.. Loved all of them.. Hope your Christmas was special, and wishing you an even more special 2018.. Sending mega hugs and see you in the New Year.. xxx ❤
My dearest Sue, I’ve been very much offline lately and haven’t visited for some time now. I hope 2018 and January will slow down a bit! Mega hugs multiplied – love and mega kisses too. Happy fulfilling 2018, my sweet friend! 🙂 xxxxxxx 😘
Dear Marina. Life has to be lived, and I will be more off line in 2018 than on, I already feel it in my bones.. The good thing is we know where each other are.. and where to visit.. LOL.. So keep doing what makes you Happy..
And have a fantastic, Happy, Healthy, Peaceful 2018… Sending so much love.. ❤ ❤ ❤ xxx Take care.. xx
Ah, yes, “life has to be lived”!!!! Sending extra hugs and love to the loveliest most kind girl around! Indeed we know where to find each other! 🙂 xoxoxoxoxoxo
😊😍🌹💕🥂
The first image is stunning as it stayed with me as I viewed the rest – which is why I also enjoyed the other orange images. The first moon pic reminds me of a short story I’m drafting (to be posted later … probably sometime in January) …. Always a joy to see Hera. 🙂
That sunrise was quite memorable! It’s one of those moments you remember and I was pleased to see that it was captured in the shot. I hope I’ll be more blog active by the time you post it! It’s been crazy around here lately! 😉 till then: Yamas, my friend! 🍷
As a whole, I like sunrises better than sunsets … but in my house, I see sunsets better. Meanwhile, no worries regarding your crazy time … hang in there!
Lovely shots
Thank you, Alex! 🙂
