1/500 f/3.2, ISO 200, hand held.

Mundari boy rubbing on himself with a mixture of ash and sand (South Sudan). The Mundari are cattle herders of South Sudan, the world's youngest country, who dedicate their lives to the care of their cattle. They live in symbiosis with their Ankole Watusi cattle, characterized by their large horns. In a cattle camp, everyone plays their role. Young boy and children are doing most of the daily work. They collect the fresh cow dung and put it into piles which are then set on fire. Those fire are useful as they repel the (extremely) numerous and voracious flies and mosquitoes of the South Sudanese countryside. The ash created by these fires is used to rub on themselves and their cattle, creating a protection against mosquitoes. The children with few guardinas are sleeping with the cows. The ash from dung fires, as fine as talcum powder, is often used as bedding. Website: https://robertopazziphoto.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roberto_pazzi_photo/
