PHOTOGRAPHY: Lagodekhi, Pona --- Herbst 2010. Von Hans Heiner Buhr
Great Light, clear autumn, nice portraits ... amazing landscape ... My german friend Hans lives for a long time in Georgia. Mostly he is in the capital of Georgia - Tbilisi. But he loves also the mountains of the Caucasus. And I think he likes the people from the eastern area called Kakheti near the border to Azerbaijan ... There are a persian influence. Kakheti is the eastern part of Georgia.
Some people explained me sometimes in Tbilisi about the difference between western part and eastern part of Georgia ... before the war 2008 when the russian army almost separated Georia in two parts near Gori ...
