I continue to share with you the views that I photographed during a helicopter flights. Today it will be mountains, many mountains!
It is difficult not to admire the beauty and scale of the mountains. It doesn't matter how high they are: 8 thousand meters or, for example, 500 meters above sea level — they all are very large compared to a person.
You can walk at the foot of the mountains, or climb their slopes and peaks, or even fly over them by plane or helicopter... All the same, this scale is felt and even suppresses a little with its majesty.
But it is normal. In any case, mountains can and even should be admired and treated with respect. They are so beautiful!
They are delightful in their diversity: composed of different rocks, covered with vegetation or not, iridescent with all shades of flowers, with sharp ridges and peaks or gently sloping, the mountains always attract my eye.
Some of them, perhaps, have not been trodden by a person, especially those that are located in remote or sparsely populated areas, standing not separately, but in vast mountain ranges, without any records in height, which could attract climbers, not covered with greenery, seeming almost lifeless.
Today's photos are mostly with such mountains. It seems that no paths are visible on their slopes, there is not a lot of vegetation, only deserted bare slopes shimmer with different shades of colors, pleasing to the eye, despite all their severity.
I took these photos from a helicopter on the road between the village of Zyryanka and the village of Ust-Nera in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Russia.
Everything you see here belongs to the Chersky Range, a mountain system in Northeast Siberia. More precisely, I can say that this is views with the Momsky Range in its composition.
But accurately identifying the locations of each photo when you fly over them in a helicopter has been and still is somewhat difficult for me.
However, this does not prevent me from enjoying the beauty of the mountains — both then and now. I hope you do too :)
It's better to watch photos in high resolution.
