-coffin-, a photo from Solola, South

Photographer's Note

A dark picture.
This year was a year of election,tension was strong."EGP" ejercito guerillero popular" was very active. many "missing people".this dictature was not so famous than Chili for example,but very hard.
Rigoberta Menchu was Nobel Price a few years later for her fight for indian identity.
This is why coffins were a banal item at the market.

Hi!
Your photo is not interesting, is so dark, composition is bad! Colours are not good.

Une note vraiment digne d'un documentaire... j'aime beaucoup la facon dont tu nous d'ecris la realité d'un pays qui a souffert et dont tu as connu beaucoup de ces soufrances.
La photo est un peu surexposée, j'y aurais mis un peu moins de lumiere et plus de contrastes en postproces, mais j'aime bien la composition, tous les détails, la vielle ville au fond, les cercueils, l'enfant...
Bravo.

I like this one too much! Although the coffin is only small, it attracts attention. Plus the young man looking at it with almost fear-like expression on his face. There are even more details in this take.
Great work!
