An ecological wrapping Photo

Photographer’s Note

Still on the station platform between Manakara and Fianarantsoa, I was attracted by this young malgache girl. She was carrying a huge bunch of flowers, wrapped up in a banana leaf. This wrapping was natural, free, practical, aesthetic and a guarantee of freshness. A great idea!

Hi Danaiel.
A very wonderful picture that makes us to see how is the life in this culture, and how they uses things that are there and tell us that it is possible a happy life without lots of things.
Composition and colors are very good, but I would have try to make her smile. The scanned is very good and the photo has no lost quality. Congratulations.
Angel.

Salut Daniel
Je vois que la feuille de bananier sert vraiment à tout ! Non seulement elle sert à se protéger de la pluie, mais aussi à emballer toute sorte de choses, comme ces fleurs. Le visage de la dame est un peu distordu. Bizarre car le 50 1.4 est normalement exempt de ce genre de défaut. Bon scan
Amicalement
JP

salut Daniel,

Ca va, j'arrive encore à en trouver, des images d'Afrique non commentées... Génial, ce portrait, avec cette immense feuille de bananier, et sa belle transparence.
Bises
Bon we
