Mystic
Mystic
I was invited this springtime to rejuvenate some pretty old apple, pear & plum trees in a very tiny remote village in Croatia call Završje. In Croatian this title has a meaning & can be translated like "behind the peak". Recently an international, alternative couple bought few houses in the village & the land around with these old fruit trees. They started renovating the houses & also are trying to keep the fruit trees to have food to be sustainable & as independent as possible but the trees were so high, like 10 & more meters high & the fruits almost cannot be picked so they called me to crop down the trees & to keep them alive but lower so that the fruits can be easily picked. It is not a one season project but definitely we did a big step towards the wished state of the fruit yard & we will continue in the summer, autumn & next spring too. Unfortunately, I had only a macro lens with me but still I did some nice shots with it. I wished I had at least a portrait or a wide angle lens to catch the ambience. Anyway, I hope you will like the shots anyway. They are really mystic!!!
This is my entry to #monomad challenge. Thanks @monochromes for keeping up this great photo challenge!
All the upper photos I made with Nikon Z6 & Sigma 105 mm DG Macro HSM lens & for the self-portrait below I used Nikon D800 & Nikon AF Nikkor 35-70 mm lens.

Gives a magical touch being in black and white with the old house, smoke plume raising above with inversion happening below through the trees and valley floor.
Thanks for noticing & describing it so well! 😏

A very inspiring mystical project👌
Thanks🙏
Thank you too! 🙂
They look mystical, yeah. Makes me want to be there.
And do you also spend time cropping down trees? Cool.
The owners will organize some events there this summer. Retreats, vegan cuisine, permaculture workshops, ritual drumming... if you're in Croatia in the next few months, you can visit them. Maybe I'll be there too
I wish I could but I am in Havana now. 😅
Havana must be nice too!
And yes, I cropped & rejuvenated more than 25 different fruit trees. Hopefully this season we'll pick some natural, delicious food!!!
