Lovely reading,
a bit sad really to think all his work down
throught the years may not be passed on.Nice that his work has been documented and recognised.
I found that totally fascinating.
Great article and pictures :D it goes to show if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. :D
I saw a similar thread on another forum recently about these photographers in Afghanistan. Its very sad to see these guys having to stop what they love doing.

I had my picture taken with a friend while traveling in Peru a few years ago by a street photographer just like those described in the article. It was a great trill. The little photograph had such a retro feel to it that we looked like explorers from the early 1900’s.
