Piva river dam in Montenegro was completed in 1975 and its construction resulted in the flooding of the Piva canyon and the creation of Lake Piva which, with its 12.5 km², is the second largest lake in Montenegro. The dam is 220 metres (720 ft) high, one of the highest in Europe. The dam is 268 metres (879 ft) long and 4.5 metres (15 ft) thick at the crest, while it is 30 metres (98 ft) long and 36 metres (118 ft) thick at the base. The foundations go as deep as 38 metres (125 ft) into the ground. 820,000 cubic metres of concrete and 5,000 tonnes of steel were built into the dam. The location of the 16th century monastery was flooded by the lake, so while the dam was built, the monastery was broken into pieces and moved to a higher ground, 3.5 km away. It was reconstructed in the original way.

In December 2017, after almost 25 years of work, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague closed its doors. It was the first international court to try war crimes since the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals which were created after the Second World War. In a number of its judgements, the ICTY ruled that the killing of Bosniaks in Srebrenica in July 1995 qualified as genocide. That December, I had the opportunity to photograph a number of lawyers who had worked at the ICTY. I wanted to create a scene of the lawyers dressed in their robes leaving the ICTY building, having completed their work. The actual photograph that I created shocked and overwhelmed me. Instead of creating a relatively neutral scene, my use of an ND filter resulted in an image which resembles the tombstones of men buried at the Srebrenica Memorial where the 24th commemoration of the genocide will be held tomorrow. I found the unintended ghost-like effect very symbolic and powerful. #srebrenica #thehague #denhaag #bosnia #sarajevo #bosna #genocide #justice #internationallaw #law #news #bnw_legit #monochrome #bnw #bw #blackandwhite #ndfilter #history #balkans #peace #nomorewar #neverforgetsrebrenica
Sun breaks through on Prokoško Lake in Bosnia at 1636m above sea level on Mt Vranica. It is one of major tourist attractions in the country today, a fact which jeopardises its pristine nature.
