"The smiling deda of Vitanovac, he was smiling as I took a picture of him as he was coming back from the fields with his cows last winter. He was one of only a handful of people who still living in the village situated between Svriljg and Bela Palanka, its a shame a lot of Serbia’s villages are dying out, due to lack of investment in agriculture, modernisation of roads and standard of living. It’s unbelievable as south east Serbia around Pirot, Temska, Kalna are on the doorstep of Stara Planina, the last great wilderness left in Serbia with its rolling hills, mountains, forests, river and fertile soil." by ritski18
