Cow dung drying in a village (India)

In rural India, dried cow dung is used as fuel and as building material. Cow dung is also called gobar.

I saw this on an Indian website: "Anyone who has eaten chapaties (flat bread) cooked on a gobar fire can testify how this fuel enhances their taste".

This photo is part of a series that I took in a small rural Indian village.
