20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
The truth is out there in the mountains

During the trip to Dombay region in the North Caucasus I wanted to spend the night at the flying saucer-styled hotel. Unfortunately, it is open only in winter since this is a ski resort. I still hiked to this "UFO" and was happy that the light and the clouds that day added some mystery to the picture.
