A working tea collection site in Rize’s Çamlıhemşin valley. Photograph tea stacks, workers, and the textured cascade of greenery with misty mountains in the background—great for documenting everyday “black gold” culture. Best light is morning for softer contrast; weekdays tend to be quieter. Free entry, but treat it as a working area.
