The Mongolian

Last day in 2014….. Everybody are making list of good and bad in this year. I’ll wait a few days with that, I want to have all of 2014 done before I evaluate

But I – like everyone else – want to wish you all a Happy New Year, and I hope 2015 will bring you a bunch of great photo moments.

As of this photo, it was one of the first portraits I made on my trip to Mongolia this year. I found Mongolians weren’t that found of getting their photo taken, especially in the capital Ulaan Baator, it got a bit easier when I went out in the countryside. And it’s a real shame, because a lot of them are really looking great, with their rough faces and all.

Well, this is my first on this trip and definitely one of the best I have ever done.
