After having run through the winter of European Russia, the icy rain of Ufa, the snow of Ural Moununtains, the short spring and hot summer (!) of West & Middle Siberia; we now see the autumn harvest begin in the Irkutsk region. Light morning mist cover the steep hillside forrests long into the day; the roadside allmost explodes in a firework of wild flowers and berries: white, dark & light purple, red and nuances of yellow; all surrounded by green plants & trees in all shapes and shades. It seems, the difficulty of terrain & conditions is matched by the reward of a facinating, ever changing, clear nature, and the 'understanding by experience' of the times of nature from midwinter to autumn :-) |
