Winds of Hope

Uploaded: June 08, 2012

Description

The poor boy was selling the wind fans along the roadside. 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. I did, not only bought a few but also shot a few. This was on our way to the Nathiagali Hill resort in Pakistan (Altitude 8000 ft plus).

Is there any chance that you would be able to print them before leaving the area? Receiving photos of his artwork would probably thrill him no end! #10211337
