My name is Brig Gen Ioannis C. PAPACHRISTOS, MD, Ret.
I'm a writer and a retired Brigadier General - thoracic surgeon, interested in the Art of Photography.
Photography can be thought as Poetry utilizing Light instead of ink. Hence, the titles of my photographs are often poem lines, whenever their capturing was inspired by Poetry or Belles-Lettres.
My early years were spent in my hometown, Kalampaka, Greece, which lies under Meteora, a picturesque complex of rock formations that are geologically unique and listed in UNESCO world heritage sites.. I was happy to return to this beautiful area with dark skies nearby; astrophotography is very interesting.
My inspiration for writing emerged from career milestones and other events in diverse geographical locations and cities in the UK, Greece, the United States, France and elsewhere.
