 Relaxing in the sun by Backpackin_Mac
When leaving Northern Tajikistan to enter the Uzbek Fergana Valley you might meet the guys in the photo, they are the Tajik border guards. So much for the rule of no cameras at borders. They asked for me to take their photos and then I posed individually with 6 of them with their camera.
The Uzbek border guards on the other side we a lot quieter but they were all friendly. Leave a Comment

 Cotton fields near Shaartuz by Saagar
Much of the irrigated land here is taken up by cotton, a crop that does nobody any good here given the disasterously low price on cotton and the high input of pesticides, feritlizer and water. Cotton production in general in Tajikistan is really draining the country, but after 50 years of it i presume it's a habit that you cannot wean the nation off. Leave a Comment
