Tuareg nomad pulling Camels Across Algeria’s Saharan Ahaggar Mountains



Algeria. Sahara Desert. Ahaggar Mountains. Tuareg nomads. Tuareg courtesy demands that one or more hosts accompany a visitor on foot over a few hundred meters when he leaves their camp. It’s being played here by the woman at right. There was no man at the camp, or he would have done this.



Bring your photography to the next level joining me in Ecuador next year

Algérie. Sahara. Montagnes de l’ Ahaggar. Comme c’est coutume entre les Tuaregs quand un visiteur quitte un campement, l’un des hôtes, en un acte de courtoisie, et comme c’est le cas ici avec la femme à droite, l’accompagne un bout de chemin avant de faire demi-tour.
