«Amid the shimmering shades of yellow, red, green, and even blue with violet, a stunning palette emerges — as if nature itself is painting its masterpieces. It’s no coincidence that „Alatau“ translates from Kazakh as „motley mountains.“ In autumn, this name comes to life in its fullest sense.

I wandered along the trails, breathing in the essence of fall and searching for the perfect angles to capture these shots. Now, I’m sharing with you moments of our autumn magic, ” the caption reads.

"At first glance, nature seems unchanged - as if summer still lingers. But look a little closer, and you can already feel autumn’s breath, especially in the mountains. That’s where I went, to bid farewell to the departing summer and welcome the first steps of fall," the publication reads.

Earlier, Kazinform News Agency shared a photo report of Blood Moon 2025.
