Strange to see these colourful female moulds, in such a strongly Islamic country, as Egypt. Wonderful colour, sharpness & repetition. Tfs!

Great title! Very colourful image. I was thinking some of the dummies have an odd shape, but I guess they are meant to be the men dummies. It seems a funny thing for a stall to sell. Well spotted.

Olá Ricardo,
A minha preferida é o amarelo, mas todas são lindas. Excelente captura do exótico mercado em Alexandria.Por aqui tem-se uma idéia um pouco diferente , por exemplo das roupas que estão bem ocidentais, camisetas e jeans.
Abraços

Interessante apreciar o comércio de outros lugares. Um pouco diferente do nosso por aqui. Gosto muito da variedade de cores

Hello Ricardo,

I hesitate between the pink or blue… Difficult choice !!! Really original stall and indeed a last image on your beautiful Egyptian series well coloured . The guard of the bodies seems to launch you a glance of mistrust… Well seen for the title in Bénetton.

With all my friendships and a good end-of-day,

Jean-Charles

Ricardo,
Penso que é uma imagem muito semelhante a algumas partes pobres do interior do nordeste brasileiro. Linda a imagem, amigo.

ola ric,

well........

picture yourself this: you find youself in cairo, fes, gaza, damascus, teheran, wherever... and you find such a man with such dummies... or anything colorful like those damn dummies... and? and nothing really changes...
in other words - i'm sure you have dozens of decent photos which you would like to prefere over this one when showing to the world "how i found alexandia being a unique place"...

all the best,
j.

Cricri (42797) 2009-01-30 5:06

Hola Ric
Quelle jolies variétés de couleurs et aux formes bien sympathique:-)) j'aurai une préférence pour le rose tendre:-) je me demande bien se que pense le vendeur...belle scéne de rue
Good day to you

Hola Ricardo.
Una foto interior muy interesante con una variedad de maniquies de diferentes colores, hay muy buena claridad y definicion, tu POV nos permite apreciar otras partes de la tienda incluyendo el señor sentado con una expresión no muy simpática. Buen trabajo.
TFS.
Abrazos.

chris04stop (2173) 2009-01-30 14:02

My favorite color is the red. The red of that cloth abandoned on the street. Because I see in there the face of a witch. Because, maybe, that cloth has a long, long story to tell...
Bravo Ricardo: so a clever image!

Olá Ricardo!
Aí está uma foto bem invulgar e colorida:)!Gosto da composição com os homens do lado direito, já para não falar nos manequins coloridos. Os detalhes estão excelentes!

Oi Ricardo
Interessante mercado com estes manequins coloridos acho que vou para o Laranja :), gostei da posição do vendedor a olhar para ti a pensar o porque da foto mal sabia ele que ia para a internet , parabéns !!
Um abraço Gonçalo

Olá Ricardo
Não há muito a dizer. Uma cena meio humorística.
O título é que já está muito gasto. Já não posso com "united colors" disto e daquilo.
Cumprimentos,
Francisco

robiuk (10763) 2009-02-01 6:37

Amazing display, Ric.
One would think these dummies are for sale - were they?
Well spotted colourful display.
Cheers,
Robi

stego (22326) 2009-02-01 10:07

Olá Ricardo,
Nesses sítios até o kitch de plástico dá fotos de encher o olho, não é? Bom, bem vistas as coisas, a originalidade desses manequins seria interessante em qualquer lado, tanto pelo colorido, como pelas formas a meio caminho entre o kitch e o de escultura moderna (LOL). Se bem que o tema se prestasse a uma compo "tipo Morac", gosto da vista mais panorâmica, mostrando bem a atmosfera do local, com os comerciantes com aquele ar de que estão habituados a esperar horas a fio por um cliente e vão passando o tempo vendo quem passa e conversando.
Um abraço, José.

Olá Ricardo.
Des couleurs et des formes plein les yeux ! J'aime bien l'air inquiet du marchand comme si tu lui volais sa marchandise ou son idée d'étalage.
Belle photo reportage !

Good humour in the post, with colourful dummies waiting to be sold! Interesting, but I don't think dummies in colours like these before. The seller seems to have a stoic face...little did he know that his face is going to be seen all over the world soon :-). Nice slice of daily life…
Friendly Regards
Angshu
