This old guy lives within the Rice Terraces in Banaue, Philippines. He was smoking salt cured pork from a very old hog. He told us that this way the pork could be kept for months without refrigeration. When you eat it, you must soak it first and then use it to flavor other foods. It was evening when I found this guy so I had to use supplemental lighting inside his shed where he was working. I had our guide hold my flash off camera to add drama to the image.
