Arif, from Baku, was our local guide in Azerbaijan.
Here he is playing the Gaval Dash, or Qavaldaş, a piece of stone which resonates with an eerie tambourine-like note when struck with smaller stones.
It is assumed that the Gaval Dash will have been used in ancient times to play ritual melodies, used for the archaic Yallı chain-dance, which is portrayed at some of the petroglyphs at Gobustan, where the stone is to be found.
Arif wasn't a bad drummer at all.
Gobustan, Azerbaijan.
A candid street photo of two girls. Their personal appearances... their hairstyles... OK, it seems to be the postmodern style. Or maybe meta-post-post-modern. Some witness was immediatelly knoked down. You can see his or her leg. Is this the first example of the new style of femininity? OK. May the happiness be with them.
