Dani people live on Papua's central highlands. They were discovered in 1931 when a Dutch plane fell in the jungle in a place that was thought
to have no inhabitants. Dani didn't have any contact with other people except their neighbours Yali and Lani. They were said to be at the Bronze Age.

    Hi Carlo,

    Very nice photo. I like the subject and the use of thin DoF. The background information on the subject is also very interesting. Keep up the good work... Thanks for sharing. thumb.gif

    Carlo,
    Great shot! Your back history made me curious about the Dani people. A google search brought up one of your albums. Great shots. I love the one of Asike' by the waterfall. Wow.

    I have to add that Rocco (especially when he jumps like a tiger) is the CUTEST dog!
