How people live. Atar

Atar is a dust bowl in a state of chaos. Tiny houses, families living on the floor with goats running in between the rubbish piles, Tiny stalls all selling the same few goods. 50year old Mercedes Benz, held together with tape, transporting at least 7 persons. Without lights or indicators, frequently without windows.. Donkeys and camels standing around waiting for their next task.
Meat and fish stalls consisting of a table standing in the sun, where various pieces of meat, covered by flies, lie waiting all day.
Women sitting on the sandy pavement, holding their baby and selling fresh bread.
In between, the constant calling to prayer of the Muezzins already starting at 4 in the morning.
Oh my god!
What a tsunami of impressions,
all making me shudder.Läs mer
