Village with empty soul

The people that inhabited the small mountain village in its past were the soul of Varbovchets. Most of the people in the village were engaged with slack lime producing, others made stones on the quarry. Each house, or at least most of them, have stone foundations and unique look.
I've always wanted to take some interesting architecture shots of those buildings, but unlucky for me most of the interesting buildings are abandoned. You wonder why I didn't take some shots of those - I did, but most of the houses are hidden from the shrubs, trees and bushes that are hiding them pretty well.

Near the small village of Varbovchets, Bulgaria, there is this magical place, where the mountain ends and becomes valley. Most of the fields are workable and last year (2016), just after they cropped the fields and gathered the production I was able to take a shot. This place is special for me for a simple reason – we used to have a small part of the field and it’s just behind the plumtree. Each time we were coming here I was using the plumtree as a landmark in order to find easier our field.
