Water dripping from the grass blades.

The fields are filled with

Poisonous mushrooms. 

 

Morning sun ís shining.

A mushroom has hidden in a

Shade of a tree stump.

 

A lantern is lit.

The tall mountain has hidden

The whole sun away. 

 

A tall linden tree

Has covered with its scent

The entire forest. 

 

Far down the steep field

Went the mushroom pickers

With empty baskets. 

 

Outside the entrance

There is a bunch of tree-stumps.

The cave is hungry. 

 

 

A frozen hunter

In a mountain cottage

Is poking the fire. 

 

The grey rainy clouds.

It`s been raining for hours

Over Medvednik. 

 

An autumn sunset.

Sudden flash of the camera

Chased away the sounds.
