These refugee’s were traveling to Chad via Niger and stopped near our rig site to make repairs to their truck. After giving them water food and milk for the women, babies and children, they were gracious enough to let me take some shots. They still had 1000km to travel at this point………Life is sometimes very cruel! Unfortunately i could not get any better shots of the women and children as they were safely nestled up on top.
Shot in the Sahara desert, Libya.
Nikon D300, 24 – 120mm at 120mm, f18, 1/250, ISO 200.
