The photos had been photographed in North of Iran. They are shepherds who spent their fall in the mountains and they move down at the start of the snow.

“Some people work not to earn money for food or accommodation but because it’s their way of life. This project looks at the shepherds of northern Iran who live with their flock of sheep in the mountains for most the year, carrying all the luggage they need on their backs.”
