The forgotten planet tribes
The new book of British photographer Jimmy Nelson, Before They Pass Away ("before they die", in Portuguese), recalls his last three years traveling and photographing remote tribes of the five continents.Half half art historical documentary, the book portrays 35 tribes that still live as their ancestors â€" in inaccessible spots on the planet or even on our doorstep.From Mongolia to Papua New Guinea, passing by Ethiopia, Argentina or Arctic, Jimmy Nelson traveled the world looking for ancestor's life. In Ethiopia, he traveled three weeks just to get to the tribes in the South of the country.The photographer's next adventure will be portraying other 35 tribes, but now troubled areas or in the middle of armed conflict â€" a project that is dependent on a special permit from the authorities. For now, stay with some of the pictures of Jimmy â€" and click on the photo for the tribe and country.
