Acclaimed street photographer Giannis Giannatos trades city chaos for monastic calm in a journey to Mount Athos—not to capture monks, but to confront the eternal. In a place where “How much time do you have?” is answered with “As much as God wills,” Giannatos sheds the hustle of modern life and learns that anxiety is just pride in disguise. 
Battling low light, rugged terrain, and a no-photos policy, he distills thousands of shots into a handful of quiet masterpieces—each one a silent prayer in pixels. His takeaway? Eternity isn’t out there—it’s in the stillness between shutter clicks. The result: a hauntingly timeless photo collection meant not for Instagram, but for scholars 500 years from now. Call it divine exposure.
