Is that pretty representative of the vegetation in your area, or is a large clear area like that unusual? I ask because the first thing I thought when I saw that big clearing and a vehicle path, was that the area was logged fairly recently. That happens once in a while, particularly up North, where there are large areas of forest

After cutting of coniferous forest, on this place firstly grows "Secondary forest" - birches and aspens. ALso near this place locates hayfield and pasture for cows.

Great photos!

It is hard to believe that we can view such Photos from so far away so easily. It is refreshing to see and know preconceived notions are so wrong about an area. We here in Canada don't get to see these kinds of peaceful shots of really pretty scenery, just the bad parts.

Thank you so much for opening my eyes to a beautiful Country!

In my topics I also try to show non-railway photos, starting from small villages and town to large cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg, I show atmosphere far away from railways. Perhaps, I will show photos of village Novokuzyugskaya, where was born my father, in this village railways is absent (15 kilometers from Vazyuk), since 2004 year out of population. Most likely it's a will be topic "Ghost towns" in General.
