In this series ‘The full picture’, award-winning photojournalist Rick Findler shares the stories behind the photographs.
Rick speaks about his time spent on a very small, very private peninsula off of the Greek coast called Mount Athos – a magical land home to the oldest monastic community on Earth. As monks live a life of prayer in their monasteries, some decide to live a life of complete solitude.
