Ushguli, Svaneti, Georgia

You might not notice the difference, but these are small versions of scanned negatives from November 2007, my first winter in Ushguli, soon after I'd arrived.  I brought the scans with me on a portable hard drive, and recently began editing them.  Too much work compared with digital!

Top:  View down the village from near Jgurag (St George's) Church

The church door, of carved wood.  Note the effect of strong sunlight on the lower part of the door, bleaching the wood over time, versus its more natural colour shaded from the sun

Sheep at the base of the church

Window at home, morning, before the heat of the wood stove has had time to melt its frost
