  • A women dressed in a burqua begs for money in  Srinagar, the summer capital of the state of Kashmir and Jammu, November 8, 2001.

  • The Ruby Ranch in Southwestern Montana drive their cattle from their winter pastures to summer pastures in the Centennial Valley. Today, very few ranches drive their cattle with horses, instead moving them by truck. The age of the open range is gone and the era of large cattle drives over. Historically, cattle drives were a major economic activity in the American west, when millions of cattle were herded from Texas to railheads in Kansas for shipments to stockyards in Chicago and points east. The long distances covered, the need for periodic rests by riders and animals, and the establishment of railheads led to the development of "cow towns" across the American West.

  • DAN, NEPAL, APRIL 24, 2004:  Posters of the King and Queen of Nepal are covered by advertisements on a wall near Dan, in Western Nepal April 24, 2004. Support for the monarchy is low as Maoist guerrillas' fight for a ommunist state.Analysts and diplomats estimate there about 15,000-20,000 hard-core fighters, including many women, backed by 50,000 "militia".  In their remote strongholds, they collect taxes and have set up civil administrations, and "people's courts" to settle rows. They also raise money by taxing villagers and foreign trekkers. Though young, they are fearsome fighters and  specialise in night attacks and hit-and-run raids. They are tough in Nepal's rugged terrain, full of thick forests and deep ravines and the 150,000 government soldiers are not enough to combat this growing movement that models itself after the Shining Path of Peru.

  • ZHARE DASHT,AFGHANISTAN - SEPT. 4: A Pashtun Afghan who was living in a camp for displaced people around Spin Boldak, near the border of Pakistan and southern Afghanistan, covers his face from dust in the new camp where he has been relocated called Zhare Dasht September 4, 2002.  As an estimated 1.6 million Afghan refugees return to Afghanistan,  ethnic Pashtuns from northern Afghanistan are seeking safety in   camps in the south. Numbering up to 120,000,  Pashtuns are fleeing the Tajik- and Uzbek-dominated cities of the north out of fear and prefer to live in the dismal camps like Zhare Dasht which is set in the middle of a desert surrounded by mines about 30 kilometers west of Kandahar.
