Russian Winter pollution
DESCRIPTION
A woman on her way to work on an ice cold morning in Khandyga (- 48C). Pollution is a big problem during winter in the coldest part of Russia. Chimneys spew out dust from the coal burning central heating plants all over the northern parts of Russia. AUTHOR
I am educated as an engineer, but I was not made to spend my life working between four walls. Since 1988 I have traveled the world, always with a camera, and in 1994 I had my first story published. I work full time as a freelance photographer and writer. I have had about 500 articles published and I have written and photographed five books.
I am on the road between four and six months every year, and I have done that since 1988.
