Areni Cave

Unread post by Dr. Harout »

Henry (Babubo) came to mind when I took these pictures (remember the old shoes dating more than 5000yrs, and the wine-press?).
Last Sunday my friend and I visited the wine festival at Areni village, where just near to it is the Areni Cave. So, naturally, we decided to pay a visit.

Shaken photo, but not so important: climbing

Geez Doc. I hope you didn't damage any of their precious photons by taking photos in their cave, no photography what a joke, you should have told em where to get off I reckon.
Phew now I feel better, nice shots btw, I can see the 'head' it looks a bit insect like but definitely a head.

Hi Dr. Harout, : )

Love the historic quality of the shots and finally could see the face. : )

Must be overwhelming walking on rocks that once were treaded by the ancient people.


Thanks for sharing,

Yildiz
