The Mountain Listens - Hiker Smoking in the Barren Swedish Fjäll

A hiker in a jacket and track pants, his hair in a top knot, smokes in the barren fjäll landscape. Behind him rises a stony mountainside with a few patches of snow. The sky is heavily overcast. The whole scene has a pensive, slightly depressing mood.
