Inner Land Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Travel is always interesting when we leave the main road and we enter on the inner land. Narrow rocky roads, sailing by fields, where we can find the people of this hard hot country.

Hello Javier! Wow this is really great how you placed the man with his bike walking out of your picture somehow and I can only agree that you HAVE to leave the main roads otherwise you only see half of the truth in my eyes. Yes it does look hard out here under the brutal sun and I find you have captured this feeling in an excellent way. Fantastic photo work, you have a great eye to bring things over (I have also looked at some other photos of yours). Take care, have a good night, Barbara.

Hola Javier!!

Preciosa foto, con una singular composición y muy buenos contrastes, tu elección en blanco y negro es muy acertada, dandole un aire antiguo que en color no hubiese tenido...

Te propongo un Workshop... algo más antiguo!!
Saludos

Manuel

Hi Javier,

This was a tight one! The man almost walks out of the frame, yet his presence is well-balanced because of the mosque on the other side...and in between the hard hot land, which is what this picture really is about. (Just a thought: I'd actually prefer that as a title, not that crazy about 'inner land'...but maybe that's just tweedledeedum tweedledeeda.)

Hi Javier
I like the B&W presentation more so than the sepia version. There is a softness in the clouds as opposed to the rough texture of the land. Many would say the the man on the left should be walking into the frame but I think it helps create a tension to see him facing the oyher way.
