Nomadic woman and son, Gansu Province, China
While studying thrust faults along the northeastern tip of the Tibetan Plateau in Gansu Province, China, we (five Chinese geologists and three American geologists, including me) walked over a ridge and saw this nomadic woman and her son. I've always been impressed with her composure and trust, even though the men from her camp were out tending the sheep and in the group facing her (the geologists) there were three individuals who probably looked strange, especially the two tall ones with facial hair (I'm one of those two). Yes, I did ask to take her picture. More power to her, even though it is now 30 years later.
