Natural History Photographs


Theth, Albania
Gjelaj
14 July 2017

First full day in Theth. We tried to get to some alpine meadows, but this turned out to be far from easy. We followed a track used by many long-distance hikers, and every now and then a small group of horses carrying luggage of these hikers were guided along the track. Most of the day we found ourselves surrounded by forests, although we did manage to find a few larger clearings. Still not quite in the right mind-set for just enjoying what the area had to offer, I didn't make photos of the landscape.
