Tauheed Ahmad Nawaz
In this eerie photo series, you can see the majestic bird’s-eye view of Bangladesh dramatic landscapes, and endless traditions captured in spectacular aerial snaps. A Bangladeshi pilot Shamim Shorif Susom has captured fascinating bird’s eye photographs that show rivers, lakes, and green landscapes in his home country. The Bangladeshi pilot took these stunning photos while flying across the South Asian country mainly famous for small villages, and serene countryside outside the busy capital of Dhaka.
He tries to give an exclusive look at the daily life of villagers, whose life span is fertile farmland and paddy fields, and fishermen who set out every day on rivers or lakes in traditional boats. Susom belonging to a small village, change his life by moving to Dhaka for higher study, and eventually became a pilot.
His passion never dies for his country, has never forgotten his roots. He says I’m very fortunate enough to fly and fortunate enough to see my root, my village, and my urban life from a different perspective. Therefore, at the end of the day, I’m trying to capture memoirs of my reconnection. I’m revisiting my country my past, and especially my childhood. I love my past, my village, my roots, and my country as well. Read More – Cars Graveyard – Traffic Stuck in Forest For 70 Years
