Koprivshtitsa

Last weekend, a number of us from ACS, including Kate and I, took a one day trip to the small Bulgarian village of Koprivshtitsa. It was just another in a series of beautiful, traditional villages that we've had the chance to visit. Koprivshtitsa is famous for its 19th century home architecture, and offers a visitor the chance to see seven or eight museum houses offering a glimpse into the life of Bulgarians during that time. I was particularly impressed by the color that the town celebrates - blues, greens, yellows, and more paint the town. It was a treat to get out and shoot this place early Sunday morning, when the sun was just coming up over the hills and a heavy mist saluted the early morning rituals of its inhabitants.

The following is my impression through images of this wonderful spot:
