ALL 2012 National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest – in HIGH RESOLUTION. Part 4: “Travel Portraits”, Weeks 1-6

“Pipedreams”. As the call from mosques sound throughout the city, men make their way to begin prayer at this time of Eid. They walk in clothes freshly dressed, through busy streets and building sites. These pipes are some of the obstacals, though also used as shade from the intense sun and as a place of social gathering once prayer has been be completed. As for now, men and boys will soon repetedly bow their heads, all the while strengthening their faith. And I wonder at times, do they ever ask Allah for particular blessings, or do their most intimate hopes remain nothing more than pipe dreams. Location: Dhaka, Bangladesh.
