"Smoke" gets in MY eyes !

Taken while waiting for our car to pass through a bridge blocked by a lorry. Attracted by the overall view. Your feedback & comments are most appreciated. Thanks.

 

Enjoy some music while you are viewing by turning on your speaker :-)

A typical living & life in rural Xinjiang, China. Your comments &

feedback most appreciated. Thks, Cherlyn

A ger is round, cone-shaped tent. A ger has only one door and no windows. But it has a small opening at the top, called a 'toono'' which allows smoke to go out of the stove's chimney. It is made out of boards with a wool covering so that it is easy to put up and to take down.

 

That is its pinnacle to heavenward

and signifies the sureness of the soul, and you've captured the soul with your camera.

 

Good shot, Cherlyn. Very "smoky" atmosphere. :)

Very good shot Cherlyn. So you also have been travelling...!
