Belarusian pilgrimage Photo

Photographer’s Note

The potatoes harvest...It is a really pilgrimage in Belarus. People arrive from small and big cities to reap harvest. They are working and tired. There isn't an economic effect, but they are doing it every year. Maybe, a voice of ancestors:)
If you don't grow potatoes, as my family, be sure that your neighbours say:"You are crazy!"

Hello Kristina,

An excellent landscape shot of the potato field, below a lovely sky — like one that the great 17th century Dutch Master Jacop van Ruisdale used to paint — for example in his Forest Scene at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.

Warm regards,

Bulent
