  • Animals kept in appalling conditions at this snake farm on Khlong Bangkok Yai canal. Basing the ethos of the farm on snake conservation did not seem appropriate given the conditions that the snakes and other much larger anomals were kept. In unclean water, cages and tanks, with little vegatation and looking rarely cleaned, the animals had a palour of illness, exhaustion and in cases, madness. Snakes during the snake show were repeatedly provoked into attack by the snake handlers slapping, pinching and throwing the snakes.

  • High in the Nepali Himalayan foothills, an elderly woman is carried downhill by a relative for medical attention. On this mountain path that continues downhill to the nearest village, beyond which there is a road and transport to the nearest hospital, two men accompany the elder family member with overnight possessions. The old lady sits on a makeshift carrying chair that fits on to the back of a man who stoops under the weight of his human load. This area is known as the Annapurna Sanctuary in central Nepal, a popular trekking and adventure route to the highest Himalayan peaks. All transport to and from these regions is by mountain tracks like this and residents in the smallest villages travel on foot on by yak.
