Winds of Celebration

Uploaded: July 04, 2012

Description

The poor boy was selling the wind fans along the roadside near the hill resort of Nathiagali in Pakistan.

He was hoping for continuing winds so that his handmade colorful wind fans would rotate while the cars approach and hopefully stop to buy a few. When I did, he celebrated his sales with a smile as the winds rotated his fans.

Exif: F Number: 22, ExposureTime: 100/1299 seconds, ISO: 200, FocalLength: 16.00 mm, Model: NIKON D40
