    Where forests grow now was a barren landscape of slash and burn opium farmland as far as the eye only twenty years ago. Despite the relative peace now, local rumours of continued nightly traffic across the mountains remain. Tribesmen and gardners charged with replanting the Northern Thai-Myanmar border remain afraid to go outside at night. by: doitung Views[561] The It was interesting to see how the villages of mountains live,expecially what do their children do, how do they play.It seems like they have really ANOTHER life, than urban children of our cities. They are helpers,they don't know what the computer-games-all-the-day are,they really depend on nature and each other.They were looking so pure but so happy in the same time.And the house looked really autentic by: urbanhippie Views[392] I fell in love with this little white friend who was following me during my way to Bukovel' mountains.So many happiness in such small fluffy by: urbanhippie Views[352]

    'Dog Day Afternoon' Chapter 4. I walked up one of Cusco's most sloped streets to see the city from a high spot. Wait, not that high. I deliberately crouched to reach the eye level of this pintoresque dog, as if I were just another pooch, his pal, standing right there at the heart of the Imperial City of the Incas. by: luigimeetsworld Views[515] Ifugaos, residents of the Banaue and Batad rice terraces are primarily farmers. The shepherds take their families to the jailoos. If not all their children, at least the youngest ones. Women are responsible for the yurt, turning it into a living place during the day and a sleeping room at night. They cook and help with the animals catering. by: elisecolette Views[470] Everyday life is hard : waking up with the sun, shepherds milk the cows and the mares, before they take the cattle up to the mountains. With the horsemilk, Kyrgyz shepherds make Kumis and sell this famous fermented drink in markets around the country. by: elisecolette Views[923]
     
    In May, each year, Kyrgyz shepherds take the road to the mountains with their cattle and their families. They leave villages to get back to the ancient nomad life. They live in yurts for 4 months, far away from civilization, where grass is green and nourishing for their horses, cows and sheeps. In September, when the peaks turn white, they pack back to the valleys. by: elisecolette Views[564] Dear but ferocious Otto guarding the corn. HIS corn.

    They are somewhere up there! by: scottchaps Views[234] I was eating some delicious shrimps when suddenly I get this little guy, he stood there for a long time watching and waiting to try my food, so I made him my photo hero. by: today_is_always Views[402] This was a little Ice Cream car in the middle of a deserted beach in off season, although the cloudy and rainy weather I'm still thinking that is a great composition for a picture, by: today_is_always Views[979] I love macros about nature, but the most Like from this one is the contrast between the fuzzy and far away mountains with the sharpen and closer rocks. by: today_is_always Views[502] Barlig's remoteness has saved itself from the pressures of rapid modernization. by: organicisms Views[664]
     
    Mountain children are the best guides in this land slept on by time. by: organicisms Views[503] The remote Mt. Province is home to an endless display of sleeping giants watching over mossy jungles and the beautiful high land people. by: organicisms Views[780] The quest to find this mysterious lake needs a hunter to guide the way. by: organicisms Views[609] Locals in Barlig speak of an enchanted lake that appears only if she wants to be seen. by: organicisms Views[949] Eventually I reached the shores of lake Wolfgang and was greeted with a magnificent view of the mountains shining though the clearing clouds .The sun was setting and gave the peaks a magical yellow hue, while the lake was crystal clear emerald, despite the surprisingly large number of ships… This must have been a patrol boat arriving from another town on the lake. by: demonani Views[483]
     
    This was the first thing I saw when I arrived in St. Gilgen, on lake Wolfgang in the Austrian region of Salzkammergut. It is a charming small town nestled between the Dachstein Alps. This old cable car brought tourists and skiers to the peaks with a magnificent view over seven different alpine lakes in the region. Unfortunately the weather limited visibility, and the charge to use the cable car was a little steep, so I decided to give it a miss. It did give a mysterious atmosphere to the place, and the fog cleared momentarily to catch a glimpse of the sunny mountains, but I doubt the skis attached to that gondola have seen much snow up there that day. by: demonani Views[543] Abandoned orthodox church in a village in the mountains of South Albania. Times have changed, people have been leaving traditional villages and lifestyle to work in cities and other neighbouring countries hoping for better income. by: zsumaksa Views[1932] Children can use everything to play, like that small boy, who was completely focused on his old tire in Cat Cat village near Sapa. by: kasiapawluczuk Views[494] During noisy market day, when I was overwhelmed by the variety of colors, smells and sounds of everything there , wife of one of bird sellers was playing with child, seemed like she didn’t hear all the buzz around her. by: kasiapawluczuk Views[328] In Sapa, there were many local women selling their crafts. They were so determined to convince me to buy something that they surrounded me. I bought beautiful trousers from one of them( after all, those trousers color everything they touch so I can’t wear them) by: kasiapawluczuk Views[328]
     
    We were on our tiring trekking in the mountains around Sapa, so dirty and sweaty with crowd of others tourists with us when we met them. The group of half-naked children didn’t care about their nudity. At the beginning they willingly were posing for photos, but after that they just said :” one photo- one dollar” and simply turned back. by: kasiapawluczuk Views[1027] During one of ours trips near Sapa, we had a break in a small wooden house.. All tourists were very noisy, but the “landlady” sat quietly with dignity, patiently waiting for our leaving. by: kasiapawluczuk Views[355] Surrounded by beautiful scenery you could, at times, be forgiven for forgetting that this is a refugee camp. But refugees aren’t allowed an income. They aren’t allowed to farm this land. To be allowed to have a market stall to sell their produce, they have to pay bribes to the officials. by: moonlight Views[453] Water is essential to the creation and well-being of life. Sneaking under an over hanging cliff in the Kaatskill Mountains of New York I attempted to capture the beauty and simplicity of the dance of water droplets hitting the green moss and continuing their journey down the mountain in the late afternoon sun. by: laurenainsworth Views[471] A walk in the woods. by: emacinat Views[464]

This place is heavenly. by: burellix Views[727] Traveling alone is an amazing learning opportunity. You discover a part of you that you otherwise might never meet.
