three men and the wall Photo

Photographer’s Note

People hanging around only tourist hotel in Miandrivazo, small town in the west, where one can start journey to the coast on Tsiribihina river. Probably they are boat crew, hoping for customers

Hi Swiatek
Very nice picture and title. I like the colours and atmosphere in the picture. Good use of sunlight and shadows.
Take care, Albrecht

Wow .. thats a strnog one.. as strong as the light here. Yes its almost three men there with the shadow becoming as significant as the other two characters. I like the high contrast here.

Actually, I think this should be 4 men and a wall as the guy on the left has a very interesting shadow too. Beautiful light and colours obviously but it's the shadows that make this shot. Funny and a bit mysterious at the same time.

Truly incredible, kind of Wild West meets Africa thing here. I love the colours and strong sun. Incredible stuff.

Excellent study in light and shadow and of men who are shadows of themselves. The slanting light reveals much surface detail in sharp relief.

excellent work, Swiatek, golden tones, excellent textures and somehow really nostalgic.
This image reminds me of old etnographic studies about races, and, because of the subject, it also reminds me of another photographer, Pierre Verger.
