Portrait: Honorable Mention 2022 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Every day in the cattle camp the mundaris collect the cow dung to burn it at night. This protects the cattle overnight from insects and it helps in the cold months to warm them while sleeping. At sunrise, they collect the ashes of the cow dung and apply it to the cow to protect them from the sun during the day.
