Summer trip, a photo from Veliko Tarnovo, West

Photographer's Note

About three generation of bulgarian women. It is very typical view from these part of a World.
Visiting BG it is easy to notice that donkey is one of a main public transport.it is the most characteristic in villages, but in the city noticable too.

The women were quite shy only one of them was smiling to me.

to faubry:
Isn't it donkey?

to Janusz:
It's quite funny but carts aren't widely used for transport here in Bulgaria. Perhaps 100 years ago, but not these days. It makes me feel sad but most of the villages are almost deserted. I think these women are on a visit to their (grand)mother for the weekend.

You can see carts in the big cities (incl. Sofia) loaded with collected (often stolen) iron craps driven by brown-skinned people.
