Azerbaijanis

 

Azerbaijanis are very hospitable and welcoming.  It seemed to me they were always extending a hand to help others.  However, they can also be camera shy and sometimes do not like to have their picture taken.  Thus many of these photos are taken from further away from a subject or from behind.  However, sometimes they wanted me to take their photo and it turned into an occasion, even inviting their friends over to be photographed as well.  That’s what happened to me in the outdoor market of Salyan.  This section is a thank you to all the Azerbaijanis who allowed me to take their photos.
