Twice a year, the nomad Bakhtiari walk over the Zagros Mountains of SW Iran (3000-5000m elevation).
Each family follows traditional mountain paths, taking their flocks between the winter pastures (garmsir) near Lali in Khuzistan province and the summer pastures (sardsir) near Shahr-e-Kord, south west of the ancient city of Isfahan.
The photographs here offer an intimate portrayal of the Faridgi family – Morteza, his wife Paridjan, their nine children and their extended family – in thegarmsir and on migration.
