Ahlat, Bitlis

I captured this serene image in Ahlat, Bitlis, where a group of cows move leisurely through a shallow river. The lively green grass and towering trees frame the scene beautifully, making it an idyllic depiction of rural life. As I stood there, the sound of the water flowing gently and the rustle of leaves created a peaceful ambiance. The lighting was perfect; the sun bathed the landscape in a warm, golden hue, emphasizing the textures and colors vividly. The clear blue sky provided a stunning backdrop that added depth to the composition. I was drawn to the harmony of the natural elements with the historic remnants visible on the right. These ruins silently tell a tale of a bygone era, sitting there as witnesses to the continuous cycle of nature and time. The balance between the soft curves of the terrain and the stark elevation of the structures adds an interesting dynamic. It's a place where history and nature coexist, offering tranquility and a glimpse into the past. This photograph encapsulates an essence that is both timeless and reflective, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate the simple beauty of life's daily rhythm.
