In the summer of 2000 a fire burned about 30% of the island's forests.But life is everywhere again! You can see 3 survivors and many new pine trees growing again!We hope that such a catastrophy never take place again.
We had a wild fire on the mountain visible from our small town about five years ago. There is still a brown scar on the mountain, though I think if we hiked up to it we would find life returning just as you show us in this photograph.
Samos (Greek: Σάμος) is a Greek island in the North Aegeansea A great portion of the island is covered with vineyards, from which the famus Samos wine is made.The capital city is Vathy. The most important plains are that of Pythagorio, in the southeast, Karlovasi in the northwest, and Marathokampos in the southwest. The Samian climate is typically Mediterranean, with mild rainy winters, and warm rainless summers.The largest mountain is the Ampelos massif, which occupies the center of the island and rises to 1,095 metres (3,590 ft). The island's highest point is the summit of the Kerkis range, at 1,434 metres (4,700 ft). Famous Samians : Pythagoras ,Aristarchus of Samos,Polycrates see also this link : http://www.samos.gr/

We often experience the tragedy of bushfires in Australia. Hopefully you never have to experience such a catastrophe again.

It's a good photo and a good story to accompany it. Funny how nature takes it course.
