The herders of Shimshal used 3 types of animals primarily - yak, sheep and goats. Yaks are highly prized and valued, easily commanding over $1000 USD per animal. The herders and farmers rarely ate any of their animals, due to how valuable they were. Their diet comprised bread, meager vegetable they could grow, cheese and milk. On a special festival, like the Kutch Festival, they would slaughter a goat or a sheep; but mostly they sold the animals because of the amount of money the animals would fetch at market.
Camping in Australia's Last Great Wilderness
Camping at Mt Barnett Station in Australia's The Kimberly. The Kimberley is considered Australia's last great wilderness. It is a land of massive Boab trees, red soil, vibrant Aboriginal culture, and night skies thick with stars. Photo shot by Genevieve Hathaway at Mt Barnett Station in The Kimberley, June 10, 2013. I was spending a few weeks exploring The Kimberley and with this image wanted to use the red from the fire to convey the rich color red found throughout the area, as well as include the Boab and the blanket of stars overhead -- two other important features that the Kimberley is known for.
