[ link to themindcircle.com (secure)] Hamid Sardar Afkhami, a photographer who has toured Nepal and Tibet photographing, planned to visit Mongolia and capture the nomadic tribes who live on reindeers. He is a scholar of both Tibetan and Mongolian languages and has been awarded a Ph.D. from Harvard University. He went on to capture the lifestyle of Dukhas, the last generation of Mongolian nomads who are also herders of reindeers. Dukhas trace their roots back to Turks and are entirely dependent on reindeers. Apart from the milk and cheese provided by reindeers, they are dependent on it also for transport and hunting.
[ link to www.beautyofplanet.com] The Dukha believe they have a spiritual connection with all animals.
The connection allows them to feel at home in nature and to maintain their culture despite the growing influence of the outside world.
