Description
A green field 4000 metres in the Pamir mountains south of Kahush pass (4332 metres), on the road which links the Wakhan Corridor and the Pamir plateau, in Tajikistan, Central Asia. This area is very remote in the Pamir mountains, with no village around apart from a military base at about 4000 metres above sea level. In this photograph, there are three donkeys grazing near a stream and green grass which is very unusual in this area of the pamir mountains and at this altitude. All around the landscape is quite desolated and arid. There are snow covered summits in about the horizon.
