Worried Kazakh Herder in West Mongolia

Last week the herders of Tsengel soum in the western most part ofMongolia met in the theater of the village to discuss about collectiveactions to cope with the increasing trend of desertification in thearea. The expression of this man from the Kazakh tribe shows thegravity of the problem.

Thanks for comments and rating. Karl

Hi Karl, great portrait shot and perfect exposure on the skin. He's right to be worried about desertification. Climate change where it hurts

very nice face expresion. my advise, try to edit more in black and white.

thanks for your suggestion. I agree that your version looks better than mine. Therefore I place your version in the posting. Kind regards. Karl

Once again you provide not only a superb image but an explanation for this man's expression. Your photo journalism and documentation is very powerful.

Excellent image! I think I would go with the B&W as well. It reminds me of a Yusuf Karsh portrait.

 

Well done indeed.
