About
An amateur astronomer in Athens
I photograph the night sky and teach others to do the same. I run astronomy and astrophotography workshops in schools, advise the public on reducing light pollution, and share measurements with observatories.
I am also involved in setting up an observatory on Chios.
Phos is the Greek word for light. In the Book of Acts, Ananias of Damascus is the man who gives Paul his sight back, so light has been part of my name for a long time.
