awais 0 Posted February 5, 2008 This one is my 2nd upload for nomad's series. Previous was two sisters. Here the father and son with there dog near home. You can see the environment. They are living at bottom of the mountain. They are six members family. Husband wife and two daughters and two sons with two dogs, one donkey and 36 sheep's. 16 chickens. They have two Huts (rooms) and one grand Umbrella for animals. At this time umbrella was shut down. I ask them about there life. Income source is only sale of sheep's. They told me that one sheep will sell near about 100 US dollars (rupees 6000). They average sale one sheep in month. That is enough for them. Heard life but they are satisfied with there life style Link to comment
judyroush 0 Posted February 5, 2008 Beautiful portrait. I am so grateful for this view of the world which I would never otherwise see and might believe didn't exist if you didn't show it to me so clearly.... Pakistan, yes? I also really appreciate your explanations of these people and their lives. Their smiles shine through what is obviously a proud and challenging life. Thank you. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your portraits. Link to comment

ffrank 0 Posted February 14, 2008 A very harsh existence but your narative shows it doesn't require riches to be content with life. Very good photo and worthy of National Geographic Magazine in my opinion. That looks like a really big dog too. Take care Mujahid. Link to comment

margaret1 0 Posted February 23, 2008 I agree with everything that Judy R said. This is a good dose of reality and a life that is harsh, yet I envy the simplicity. Link to comment
