Timofey Panin, aged 12, puts firewood into the furnace, while his brother Semyon, aged 6, looks on, in their wooden house in the Taiga wood on a bank of the Mana river, about 35 km (22 miles) southeast of Russia's Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk, March 11, 2011. Valentin Panin, 83, and his wife Ekaterina, 35, got married in 1993 and began to lead a hermit way of life. The couple, who have four children now, with Valentin assisting the delivery himself, live in the wood separately from people and are occupied mostly with farming and poultry breeding.
