PESO:

We visited a place in Jaflong, Bangladesh, where workers had seasonal jobs
moving rocks from the river bed during the dry season.  I got some
criticism when I first posted a couple of these while still in Bangladesh.
There were comments that I was taking advantage of people who were, in
effect, working as slaves; however, that was not the impression I got while
I was there at all.  The people seemed happy to have jobs and were joking
and laughing as they worked.  Men, women, and children all worked together
very cooperatively.  They were very friendly and nobody objected to my
photographing them as they worked.  When they put their baskets and rocks
down, they posed for photos and wanted to see them on the camera.  All in
all, it was a very positive experience and I was disappointed at the
negative remarks I got when I posted the photos.  So, I'm trying again.  I
took over 1000 photos there, both color and B&W.  Here are the first two:

I'll be posting a lot more as I edit them and I would appreciate your
comments.

Thanks,

Tina
