“The place is located on the 24th kilometer along the Alykel-Dudinka highway. The trip was planned, with fellow photographer Sergey Dokukin, we spent more than six hours there. We set off intentionally in the evening, the sunset regime was important for us”, the photographer shares.
The walk, he said, was wonderful. Along the canyon, they managed not only to shoot the setting sun against the backdrop of chic relief ledges, but also to eat plenty of blueberries, which have already ripened.
