Wonderful photos – I like the B&W. What easy lives we all lead now. I liked the leitmotif of hard work
Thank you. The rural poor do work hard and after the terrible floods of 2010-11, it is sad to read that this year’s monsoon
has inundated many areas with resultant loss of human and animal life, and the destruction of crops.
I’ve travelled extensively in India but never to Pakistan, so find your photos especially interesting to view. I love seeing photography that shows people and places and like the fact you seem to have captured people at ease, in their natural surroundings
Thank you Stuart. It becomes harder to achieve “natural photographs” with everyone now holding up a mobile phone to snap away. But I doubt that much has changed in Pakistan which, due to its reputation, sees next to no tourists. It is one of the most photogenic countries I have visited on my travels. My book which is heavily illustrated is still on sale on Amazon “An Insight and Guide to Pakistan”.
