| Lors de mon arrivée au Sénégal, nous nous sommes rendus au village de Louly Benteigné à une dizaine de km de M'Bour. Cette photo fut ma première image du village avec cette femme et son enfant rentrant du marché, les provisions sur la tête. Il ont parcouru plusieurs km à pied dans la brousse pour aller les chercher. |

Hi Olivier,
I like this shot because it fits the 'daily life' category so nicely. This is daily life as it is in big parts of Africa. By foot, through the fields, goods on your head, blazing sun and a 20 kilometer walk. It makes clear why the big marathon runners come from Africa ;-).
The sharpness and colours in the distance leave a bit to be desired, but it's about the portrait of daily life and that is done nicely.
Greetings, Dennis

Bonjour Olivier.Great testimony to the hard work and resilience exhibited by the African people. Those with racist tendencies like to declare that black people are lazy, therefore they deserve to live in poverty. I would like to see such people last an hour in these conditions, undertaking such toil. regards. Klaudio.
