Tsaatan Herders in the Mongolian Wilderness
In the remote northern reaches of Mongolia, the Tsaatan people maintain a centuries-old tradition of reindeer herding. This image captures three herders atop their reindeer during the soft light of dusk, their figures silhouetted against a vast, snow-dusted plain and distant mountain ranges. The reindeer, central to their livelihood and culture, stand strong and alert, embodying the resilience of this nomadic community. The scene reflects a deep harmony between people, animals, and the harsh yet beautiful environment they inhabit. Photographer Daniil Korzhonov documents this enduring way of life with quiet dignity.
