The Eyes Have It!

Taken in the tent of a Nomadic Кalajdzia family, outside of Ivilovgrad, Bulgaira; within sight of the Greek Border.

The Kalajdzia make large pots from scrap metal over open fires. This family was very welcoming, but I was only able to shoot for about 5 minutes as our driver was waiting.

Here is a picture of how the pots are made: http://212.72.210.65/sr-www/files/Foto-galery/enlarged/Bulgaria%2090th/1.JPG
