    Many families in the village struggle with money and cant afford their children’s education which often forces the husbands to leave to foreign countries to earn more money. This leaves the women alone with the animals, farm and children for months at a time. by: hetahannaloviisa Views[763] Natural high. While I can hardly keep my breath at such heights, this woman walks up the dizzy streets of Cusco, carrying her belongings with ease. by: luigiluigi Views[662] I can still hear the chuckle of this old woman as we trekked past her home on the side of a hugely steep mountain. Here she is captured pensive, though moments later she would laugh at me trying to take photographs of the dogs lazing at her feet. What I found in the Kalimpong community was a simple contentment with life, free from what we could actually accurately label #firstworldproblems, minor problems of the developed world which we blow far out of proportion. I think it's also very important to emphasise the agency of these people, recognising that they have hopes, fears, and lives as vivid as anyone else. by: juliezhuphotography Views[976] During my three weeks in Iran, I am fascinated by the women. They come in all colours of clothing, black being the most common. Women from a country town dress conservatively, while their city counterparts prefer vibrant colours. I saw this woman at the Afif-Abad Garden in Shiraz. She was stunningly beautiful and I approached her for a photograph. I couldn’t learn more about her as language was a barrier. She was the most fashionable woman I saw. A modern side to Iran. by: fionachan Views[834] The woman of that area, go far away from their house to collect fuels from the forest... by: swarupsphoto Views[1245]
     
    Undefeated: seniors meet daily with others in their community to share coffee, a meal, and challenge each other at chess and other board games. by: unumastrum Views[921] 70 years old woman selling fruits and vegetables for whole life..She said to me She must fight for every customer who passes. After all, as everyone there. I felt sorry for her after I saw the sadness in her eyes. She told me different stories of wartime about how her children tried to run away, but some did not survive .. Not many people speak English, they never nedeed. Their language called Serbo-Croatian which is is relatively easy for the Slavic nations.. by: rainbowoneachside Views[1839] An elderly woman and her daughter sell animal feed at a local market in Jauja, a small town in the central Andean plateau that was once Peru's capital city. Peru is becoming increasingly urbanised as more and more youth move to the big cities to find work as clerks or taxi drivers, leaving the elderly behind to tend to farms. Likewise, as Peru modernises, farming is becoming more mechanised. As a result, a treasure trove of knowledge about ancient agricultural techniques, as well as many unique cultivars, are slowly being lost. As these elders have no youth to mentor, their knowledge dies with them. by: loverock Views[846] I met this beautiful potato seller at the famed Andahuaylas market in the central Andes, just north of the Sacred Valley. The rich soil allows for the cultivation of many crops, and the land is irrigated by waters flowing down from the higher peaks of the Andes. The market is almost 3 kilometers long, selling everything from second hand clothing to livestock, vegetables and cheap chinese imports. Spices enliven the air and the colours and motion of the place is overwhelming. Farmers from the country, carrying sacks full of hundreds of variety of potatoes (a crop native to Peru), sell their wares on the large concrete pavements set up for stalls, shouting prices and flagging down potential customers. Should you feel the need to escape the chaos, just cross the river to the livestock section, buy yourself a horse and ride off into the sunset. by: loverock Views[1032] First of all, we travelled to see the highlights of local specialitys of birds, but there were many other things to see. Ordinance is more taken into consideration than we experienced till now. by: faragoadam Views[438]
     
    It was a late night in the city and it was Fashion’s Night Out, I was walking around with my wife and we turned a corner and had to wait for a walk light to turn green. My wife turned around and saw this person sitting there enjoying a smoke. She turned to me and said, “Quick, take a photo!” so I turn around and ask, what turned out to be, this man if he’d pose for a photo for me. He was more than happy to oblige and I was able to get this shot. by: stanjo_ Views[628] Once the women are feeling fresh again after their fragrant smoke bath they set about grinding down small stones of ochre. Rhythmically the women work away grinding the red stones down into a very fine powder. by: benmcrae Views[2097] As soon as a Himba women wakes she begins her daily beauty ritual. The small fire that has smouldered all night inside her hut is then transformed into her mornings bath tub. Fragrant herbs are added to the fire as the women straddle themselves closely to the smoke and cover themselves with a large blanket, trapping the smoke, eliminating any unhygienic odours that may have accumulated over the previous 24 hours. by: benmcrae Views[2162] Pride is taken in caring for the home. by: rachelwolfe Views[493] Cooking up old time favorites by: allasadventures Views[463]
     
    Women selling berries to passengers of train during a halt enroute to Khajuraho, Indian trains have a bad reputation because they keep stopping in middle of stations like in this case too, station is still a few miles away. by: exeperience_photography Views[1533] Rice is survival. This is a dirty and difficult work, but it gives life. It is important for every village, every person. Work from dawn to dusk. But when you Journeying rice fields, sitting on the bike or the bus, it seems incredibly beautiful, endless paddy fields is a lovely sight to everyone. by: shantiom Views[836] People near akihabara train station by: tokyo Views[344] woman Flower Hmong, Bacha, Lao Cai, Sapa, Vietnam by: federico_caminada Views[624]
