EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of nomads and their camels make their way through the narrow and rugged Passage of Col de Sfa in the deserts of Biskra, Algeria. The scene transports us back in time to the early 1910s, when Biskra was a French garrison town, known for its Saharan oasis. The nomads, dressed in traditional clothing, appear to be taking a brief respite from their arduous journey through the desert landscape. Their camels, with their humps laden with supplies, stand patiently beside them, their expressions mirroring the stoic determination of their riders. The Passage of Col de Sfa, a natural rock formation, is a striking feature of the desert terrain. Its narrow passageway, framed by towering cliffs, creates an otherworldly atmosphere, adding to the sense of isolation and adventure. The surrounding desert, with its undulating dunes and vast expanses of sand, stretches out in every direction, offering a breathtaking display of natural beauty. Biskra, located in the northern part of Algeria, was a popular destination for European travelers seeking to explore the Sahara. The French presence in the region is evident in the garrison town's architecture, with its colonial-style buildings and European influences. However, the nomads and their way of life remained largely untouched by the outside world, continuing to roam the desert with their camels and maintain their traditional way of living. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, capturing the spirit of adventure and the resilience of the nomads who traversed the deserts of North Africa. It is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and natural beauty that can be found in the most unexpected places.
