Photographing Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina is characterised by a landscape of mountains, river valleys and karst terrain, with towns and cities often shaped by the routes of the country’s waterways. Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian influences remain visible throughout the built environment, contributing to a varied architectural character that reflects centuries of cultural exchange.

Rivers, bridges and historic urban centres form recurring features within the landscape, while surrounding hills and forests create a strong sense of topography.
