Bhutan July 2010

some raw footage from a trip to Bhutan. Noteworthy are the archers. Two villages competing against each other. The shooters are 150m from the other team, which stands only a few meters away from the small targeted, trusting that nobody misses by more than those few meters otherwise they would likely to get killed. Everybody is in traditional clothing, chewing the slightly intoxicating drug betel nut wrapped in some stuff (not sure if that helps to be less concerned when you stand next to the target to to shoot more accurately if it's your turn).
