An existentialist in central Asia.

Kyrgyzstan is still a nation proud of it's roots. You simply go on vacation for short periods of time to this country, but do you really know the nation as a whole? Have you traveled outside of Bishkek's downtown squares? I think if you truly knew the culture of this country you would know Kyrgyzstan is a country that often holds tradition over law.

i want to see your pictures of Kyrgzstan

[@boogiesDee]

a country with natives of eroupean and asian decent, so interesting

I more or less agree with Tycho343 on this. I don't know about "worse", but what counts are the images, not the credentials. I'd love to see the best of the images from his tour, but like many of the snaps I take, the ones shown here are at best just records of being there. I rather like the video itself, though.

M. Gaumy's comments on money seem oddly out of place. Consider: Kyrgyzstan Average Annual Salary (USD): $8,593; Leica M-P Digital Camera (body only): $7,950.

Yes, I am serious. But no, I don't have to be a master cook to judge the taste of my food.

Are you serious? Who are you? VII photographer? Magnum? Reuters? He has been shooting for Magnum for 40 years!

I need bride kidnapping...

[@Tycho343]

Sorry, but I can't understand why he was chosen as a photographer. Those pictures are meaningless and are worse than any tourist with point-and-shoot camera can take.
