Hi Awais,

This is a super picture. It makes me think hard and long about the life this fellow must lead and, more particularly, about the struggles he must face as he works his cattle. This is a most poignant photo.

Again, your photo makes me feel like I am there...and the very least makes me feel the people and land.

Nice work!

In my mind it would be nearly perfect if the herder had given you a glance over his shoulder.
