Hi, my name is @philippedudouit and i am taking over the @photoworks_uk instagram for the week. Over the days, i will present you few images taken from work on the evolution of the Sahelo Saharian space between 2008 and 2016. Cocaine Highway – Salvador Pass Area – Northern Niger 2013. The Salvador Pass creates a natural corridor at the border between Niger and Libya, and has been used for centuries by all types of smugglers. More recently, it has been used by jihadis on their way between Northern Mali and Libya. @eastwingphoto #THEDYNAMICSOFDUST #IGTakeover #philippedudouit #photography
