Kusimovo Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Man on a horse in the little village Kusimovo near lake Bannoe in the East of Baskiria, Russia. He was herding horses at -15 to -25 degrees Celcius.

All these little towns are very interesting.

Hi Sander,
a photo made for TE.. to learn how others live and work. Great job ! I also like the contrast of the colours blue/brown/white, nice palette, and the movement you show us.
Good one ,
Christian

Nice picture... Makes you sing:

"Let me mount my stallion - Take me across the fields, away!
By the endless fields of mine

Let me glance at the sky to see where the the fields give birth to dawn
Oh that cowberry color, scarlet sunrise!
Is that place real, or is it not

My little fields, my streams, lights of villages afar
Golden rye and curly flax
I'm in love with Russia, I'm in love"

(Сяду я верхом на коня, Ты неси по полю меня, По бескраинему полю моему....)
