It looks romantic but it’s actually a really tough harsh life. So tough and so harsh that it’s actually disappearing.

Many moved to the cities and the herds diminished. The remaining people make most of their money from tourists buying their crafts and riding the reindeer. Hamid Sardar-Afkhami documented the life of this shrinking community in these beautiful and poetic images.
