The time on the mountain river
The Trans Cindrel is a little-known but impressive high road in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. In this remote region, travellers not only encounter wild nature and vast mountain landscapes, but also shepherds moving through the heights with their herds. The shepherds often still live according to traditional patterns: in simple shelters, accompanied by their dogs and sheep, far away from modernity. Their lives are characterised by hard work, but also a deep connection to nature. Travelling on the Trans Cindrel means experiencing a piece of original Romania - authentic, rugged and full of quiet beauty. | Romania
I believe this photograph is flawless. The lighting, the composition, the way the shepherd and the dogs look back… everything is simply perfect, capturing a moment of serene harmony.
