Georgia Notes and photographs from a drive through the Caucasus.

A journey from Kutaisi into the high mountains, told a few photographs at a time. Each plate below is a single moment, given room to breathe rather than lost in a gallery of hundreds.

The hay harvest at golden hour

The first day of travel already felt like quite a rush. We had to drive from Kutaisi all the way to Ushguli, high up in the Caucasus. Stressed to reach the village before sunset, we stumbled on this most wonderful scene. A few farmers, harvesting hay and stacking a gigantic pile onto a modest white truck. The silence, the warm evening sun and the endeavour of these farmers created a surreal atmosphere.
