Lesotho
has a lot of mountains. The locals call it The Mountain Kingdom. All the
mountains make the scenery just spectacular. But this makes transport a big
problem. There is only a limited amount of roads in Lesotho and a lot of them are
basically not fit for any kind of motor transport. There are passes with names
like God Forsaken
Pass, Baboons
Pass, Widow
Pass and The Devils Pass so you can
just imagine how difficult it is to travel in Lesotho. For this reason Horses are
very popular and practical in Lesotho.
I stopped immediately when I came across this old man on his
horse. He was so photogenic and also willing to stand for a few photos. I just
couldn’t get him to relax. I had a translator with me and I think the Old Man
understood what I wanted to do, but he just never trusted the camera. We managed
to make him smile a few times, but unfortunately never for a photo.
You will always have days like that.
