About the Picture
Countryside in Poland, in the Podlaskie province, often called “green lungs of Poland”. This landscape picture was taken when a unique sunset showed up in the sky and I was in the nearby forest with my camera.
Picture from the countryside next to “Nowa Luplanka” village. I love to explore forests in Poland during summertime when mushroom picking is one of my favorite activities. But I always carry my camera with me, in case of such scenic views spotted, accompanied by one-of-a-kind sunsets.
Forests, fields, beautiful sky – nature is simply amazing. Whenever I visit the countryside, I take a bike, my camera and explore forests and fields, when I want to just enjoy nature, but sometimes it gives me an opportunity to take beautiful captures.
In a fast-paced world, an escape to nature, serene countryside surrounded by lush greenery, far away from all the city noise has proven health benefits. Studies show that being in natural environments lowers cortisol levels, the hormone responsible for stress, and can improve overall mental health.
The combination of fresh air, vibrant green and calming rhythm of nature helps to ease my mind and bring joy, there is so much beauty when walking through the meadows, watching the sunset, such a grounding experience when you simply just breathe and reconnect with what’s important.
Podlaskie in Poland is just perfect for that, its known for its sprawling forests, vast meadows, and enchanting sunsets, this region offers some of the most picturesque landscapes in Eastern Europe and it’s home to Białowieża Forest, one of the last and largest remaining parts of the primeval forest that once covered much of Europe.
Next to forests you’ll find serene lakes, rivers and open fields that stretch for kilometers.
