Here you can see some Pakistanis standing to wait for the foods, we were waiting too. They Pakistanis all or almost all the men are wearing this way, only change in color of the cloth, all of them look quite same to me.

Four again

One of my favourite collections, this is a photo of all four of them, beautiful fours. Taking photos of girls in this country is not easy, you will find out later when you come here, so I won't miss the opportunity.

Road to Naltar Valley

Driving to the Naltar Valley is driving in withing these rocks, no proper roads, all natural, a perfect place for nature lovers, don't come here with stupid luxury tourists, they will sure tell you to improve the roads, build a resort, 5 star hotels, etc and last turned the whole environment into shiit.

This shot was actually Akhtar's idea, he said " Take the photo, the woman is beautiful, take the photo !! " while driving. He certainly knows how to pick the good ones, the woman in picture isso beautiful.

Now quickly I take their photos, you don't get the chance this easy to take girls' photos in Pakistan, most peoples won't allow their girls to expose to camera. Look how happy they are, I am happy too.

A family without mother

The little girl went shouting for her parents to invite them for photos, only her father come out, her mother hide behind the wall, she was probably brainwashed that women should not expose to camera, the same like the one I met in Baltit Fort later.

Now when I first take the little girl's photo one tip above, I didn't expect to take so many photos, I was only thinking to have a few but after one shot, she began calling the neighbourhood to come out for photos, each of them want to have photo, so I take one by one.
