Photographer’s Note

Two young nomads inviting us to have a cup of Koumys (distilled liquor from mare's milk) in their Yurt.
As you can see, Kirghiz learn to ride very early...

Tres belle photo. Quelle surprise de voir un tout petit deja perché sur un ane... Il a l'air en plus de maitriser la situation. Geraldine

A lovely doublte portrait, Chantal. I quite like the contrasting expressions on their faces: the one of the left clearly welcomes you, but the little one seems to be less sure about it. Good work.

Great shot...feels as if these two just wandered into your frame as you were sizing up the landscape. You have captured the peaceful, nomadic lifestyle of the Kyrgyz people well. Brings back fond memories of travel there. TFS
