Peloponnese secret places.

Secret places in Peloponnese. During my vacation the August of 2025, I was looking for an uncommon landscape. I visited randomly a really small village, with a few people, one greek tavern and this lagoon in the middle. The place was so peaceful and created the feeling like it was forgotten years before. I captured the natural elements of the place, the wildlife, the laggon, the sun and the vegetation.
