Description

A densely forested landscape, with a house on a slope in the centre of the image. A stump of a recently felled tree in the foreground on the left: photograph probably taken from a garden on a mountain-top looking towards the hamlet. The area around Wogamus is known for its densely forested area and in the 1990s there has been a proliferation of environmental activism in the area [Andrew Moutu 20/02/04].
