Photo Tour with National Geographic freelance photographer Alison Wright to the nomads of Tibet. Alison is currently in Tibet and works on his project on indigenous populations. The project lasted for five years, and only Alison Tibet dedicated twenty years of his life. Alison says that delighted the people who live far away from civilization and very self-sufficient. 'The nomads have a real visual beauty. "- Says Alison. "I say this not to romanticize nomadic, but this beauty is seen, for example, a woman walking down a street in the necklace of amber and turquoise and carrying a bag of cement." For Alison question is, as the nomads have survived, not so much in the wild, and how they survived after the Chinese came to Tibet, saying how and where they live. Land taken from them and the natives have to find other ways of production sustenance. They cease to be nomads and migrate to cities. Under the cut are some pictures the Lost World of Tibet.
