Nomadic sheepherder, Iran

Northern Iranian Azerbaijan. In a remote area on a dirt track where we were seeking some pre- Hittite monoliths. This woman asked us 3 into her tent for tea. She would not allow the two men to photograph her, only me.

A head full of ducks...

And a very, very long walk to market...with full baskets in her hands too. We are very lucky people.

Road makers

Himachal Pradesh..in the mountains. India. All the work is done by hand...boiling bitumen, mixing and shovelling the boiling mixture, and spreading it on the roads. As you see, women also do this work..because they are poor. Their children sleep at the side of the road, or play with stones while they work.k
