[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the fulani are pastoralists, often in conflict locals when their grazing cattle encroach on the locals' fields.

This is Maryam. She is giving me directions, and actually spoke passable broken english. She is from a grass hut fulani village near the local federal army barracks outside Big Elele on the East-West road.

I like her tattoos, but i wouldn't do it myself.

It was a heavily overcast day and the unedited image was very dull and low contrast.

Colourful picture. A little too colourful to me, but on the other hand it suits to the subject which looks happy and full of colours inside.

Bonjour,
Belle image avec son bon restitué de la peau et ses couleurs. Le cadrage pourrait cependant, à mon sens, être meilleur. Le personnage est trop centré, les maisons attirent inutilement l'attention. Un cadrage plus serré et une présentation en hauteur conviendraient mieux ?
Merci pour le partage.
Gérard
