You betcha. I stumbled upon this photo and can't stop looking at this guy. His outfit and appearance are at once both odd and quite familiar. It's intriguing to examine the similarities between those who call themselves shamans--or the local equivalent, no matter where in the world they come from. I mean, even though I don't know exactly what this man is doing or why he's wearing what he's wearing, I can make a pretty decent assumption as to the intent of his actions and the function of his wardrobe. Quite stylish, too, no? Love the hat.
If you've got the time, here's the companion article about shamanism in Afghanistan and other parts of Central Asia.
