Gracanica Checkpoint - Late Spring 2004
Need affordable home protection? Just call KFOR and we'll set up a checkpoint near your home. Unwelcome guests? We'll turn them back, no worries. Just please be advised that hiring KFOR protection services requires heavy equipment to drive by your home late a night and chasing runaway vehicles with tanks through town in the evening.
I snapped this shot on the fly as photographing KFOR installments is general frowned upon and sometimes prohibited. The photo is taken from in front of my home which is only located four houses from the checkpoint.
Typical Front Yard scene in Gracanica...pigs, cows, goats. And often a small vegetable garden with cabbage, peppers, onions, and tomatoes.
The Monastery in Gracanica. Built in the 16th Century it is currently protected by KFOR.
