The photographer takes the diversity and uniqueness of the peoples of Asia, Africa and South America.

UK-based photographer Jimmy Nelson has turned his passion for Asian, African and South American culture into a successful career in capturing Aboriginal communities. He was always curious about the traditions and lifestyle of the local population, which led him to several large and famous photo projects.

In 2013, Nelson released the famous photo opus titled "Before They Go." Then the pictures from this series flew around the world, glorifying the name of its creator. Now the photographer is working on a continuation of the project, and this part he called "Honoring Humanity." In his series, Jimmy manages to perfectly combine art and reportage shooting in order to best convey the personality of different cultures.
