To Siberia (well almost) and back
We just got back from a trip with our boss Chinbat to his farm at Tsagaanuur which is in the very north of Mongolia, running along the Mongolian/Russian (Siberia) border. The scenery was spectacular with the fall colours making the landscape look like an oil painting.
We drove right up to the Russian border and managed to take a couple of shots before the guards spotted us with our cameras and shooed us away. Not wanting to experience their hospitality, we complied.
The following morning we went on a tour of the farm to check the wheat and potato crops, unexpected late rains were hampering the harvest. This image was taken from a hill on the farm and cannot do the view justice, we could see for miles in all directions with the distant mountains and Selenge River snaking its way through his land. Mongolia - land of blue sky - is a beautiful country.
