Photographer’s Note
At the PK 5 market (PK 5 for Point Kilometer 5, distance from kilometer 0), you can find what you need... but you need money! The prices are so high and the people so poor, only a few foodstuffs could be bought at the time.
For the perishable food, as lettuce, there's also the conservation problem with more than 105 degrees to the thermometer.
At this market, the stands are open 7 days a week, all day long, until 9 pm or more... Long days!

Très belle composition avec ces parallèles et ces lignes verticales. Les couleurs un peu saturées sont superbes. Ne voit-on pas sur le visage de cette femme toute la souffrance du monde ?
Merci
