Was there a reason for the village's relocation, Nezih? Looks like a fascinating place.
Best wishes,

Nezih - a fantastic image; an amazing sense of dereliction and desertion.

It happened after the end of the war, people had to migrate and exchange their places, Andrew. Thank you both!

Some images are destined to best be captured in B&W. This is one. Superior. T

great picture - I like the little line of pointed trees in the background leading the minds eye to the next discovery.
