Bonsoir Daniel
Ce n'est pas si fréquent d'assister à une crémation.
L'image est belle et instructive.

Moody scene, Daniel. I'm surprised it's okay to take a photo at a funeral. In general, you don't see too many photos at funerals in any part of the world. But I guess taking a photo of a funeral you are involved in is different entirely than treating a funeral that you have nothing to do with as an anthropological or artistic excercise. In any case . . . did you consider working down that flash on his face a bit? Giving him a flatter look might work well in this context. Best, -Hugh

Salut Daniel,
I am suprised they let you photograph the cremation event. This is certainly very interesting to us. You have handled the light very well. Fill flash was quite effective, and the composition is excellent. Regards,
Hakan

Bonsoir Daniel
la photo est belle et impressionnante à la fois. Un bel équilibre dans le cadrage et la lumière malgré les conditions difficiles que tu évoques.
Bravo

it is ironic how some people's "daily life" becomes others' "attraction"... very interesting scene for me as i ve never witnessed such a ceremony... the bull on fire hits real hard knowing that the corpse is in it... and the light on the man's face let us know how he feels... god job daniel...

cheers

astonishing! i'm amazed you could get so close to it to take photos - i've been around funerals in india but never dared to take any shots.

This is a great documentary work. I would never dare to take photos during a funeral, even not asking to take photos. You really managed very well the situation and the result is quite amazing. Well done.

Hola fiera.

Por supuesto, el momento es lo mejor de la foto. Impresionante también la nitidez en la cara del hombre este.

Un saludo, Oscar

Hi Daniel,
I'm allways glad to see stuff from Indonesia and to refresh my memories by pictures taken by other people sharing similar situations.
Very nice shot of the Balinese man at the cremation in Ubud.
I remember the same with the light. I took so man shots, but at least the outcome was poor.
But the cremations always start around high noon.
Best wishes,
Nino

Salut Daniel
Trsè beau portrait, l'arrière plan est aussi superbe avec cette
belle lumière malgré ce soleil assez dur. Je sens la fumée jusqu'ici!
Salutation

Elle me rappelle la précédente celle là, les mêmes ingrédients, l'usage du flash, une lumière pas facile a gérer, a dompter, apprivoiser même mais le résultat est vraiment épatant, jamais je n'aurai obtenu aussi bien dans de telles conditions.
Elle est sacrément racée cette photo, bien exotique et stylée
Superbe
