    The home is not one of those places that feel heavy upon entering. There is a quiet peace with a tinge of melancholy that seems to characterize everything. From clothes hanging on a lonely line to a room full of rusty wheelchairs to a soft light seeping through whispy curtains. Almost as though everything is romantically forgotten. by: bnbermundo Views[849] Elderly gents in a languid pose spend the afternoon in a Havana bar. Life since the US embargo has been full of hardship, particularly for the older generation. by: susanpapazian Views[2144] A legless man rests on the street in Havana, collecting pesos in his cap. Many people are hopeful for future economic change. by: susanpapazian Views[860] A late night drive home through the Suburbs. Housing divisions are starting to become the recognisable built fabric. by: kial_ Views[625] At the time we were reacting to a place we thought we hated, but upon recent reflections of this place and time I am reminded of that naive excitement we had blurring the lines between self exploration and discovery, experimentation and destruction.

    None of the animal's part is left aside. After this strange pre-cooking, the ship's head is gonna be boiled for 10 hours, and served for a sacred meal. by: travelwide Views[1022] A group of women stand outside one of the tents in the camp. Out of the 600 families, less than one fourth have returned. Vacillating between debris and dreams of what used to be, they battle everyday, rebuilding bamboo by bamboo, towards a bricked structure. They hope for not much, but a house they can live in. by: divvea Views[7641] Sujoy and his gang are having a ball (literally!) at the local ground. An intense game of football is underway on the swampy fields of the village under the blazing sun. It rained heavily just a few hours back and now the sun is shining in its full glory. This fickle weather is ironically very symbolic of the winds of change that Huchukpara is witnessing of late. by: sudhyasheel Views[815] There are limited options when Roger is bedridden, leaving him using diapers. As time passes it becomes more and more difficult for Eleanor and the aides that help out to keep up with Roger's hygiene and the demands of his condition. by: rachelwoolf Views[1355] George Goda, an instructor at the Advanced Academy for Modern Computer Science, is a man living during the time of Egypt's partition of the Arabic Spring. At 27 years old, George is shy and not a very public speaker. A middle class worker, he spends most of his time in his room, and rarely opens any but one of his three windows. His room contains a large wardrobe, and two beds- one of which belongs to his late brother, who lost his life in a car accident some two years prior. by: ebrahimelmoly Views[1430]
     
    Through the walls of social media however, George comes off as forthcoming and gregarious. Constantly engaged in online conversations, he spends a large majority of time in bed. With a now apathetic nature, George never exhibits an interest in the recent protests in Egypt.

This project explores the communities who live in this isolated corner of Britain, and the lengths they go to maintain the pure-breeding of these endangered wild animals. David Wallace is the inherited owner of the 'Anchor Herd' and is in charge of maintaining the welfare of it's bloodlines. by: sophiebolesworth Views[746] The herds on Exmoor roam over the 300 square mile National Park conservation grazing. The importance of what the people in the local communities are trying to preserve is rarely herd of outside of the area. This particular herd has been overseen by the Wallace family, for a Century. Many breed experts believe these animals bare the closest possible resemblance to the primitive wild horse, first recorded in the UK in 70,000 BC. Soldiers poached them during the 1st and 2nd World Wars for their meet. by: sophiebolesworth Views[699] Most of the KabootarBaaz's time is spent on roofs training the pigeons by: coloreddots Views[1177] It is said sport reached its zenith in Agra (near Delhi) during reign of Akbar by: coloreddots Views[1131]
