An apple a day, keeps the doctor away, a photo from Sivas, Central Anatolia

Photographer's Note

Another "oldie" but this time in color.

She was trying to sell her apples on the road side, in the village of Gürün in Central Anatolia.
Also she must be around her mid fifties .
Scanned from a color print.

Bir "oldie" daha, bu sefer renkli.
Sivas'a bağlı Gürün kasabasında, yol kenarında, evinin bahçesinden topladığı elmaları satmaya çalışıyordu.
O da şimdilerde ellili yaşları çoktan geride bırakmış olmalı.
Bu kare de renkli bir baskıdan tarandı.

Merhaba Mesut
We have the same proverb in France
It says "A glass of good wine before the soup will remove some money from the doctor's pocket ". So french, isn't it !?
A pleasant oldie from your cellar
All the best

Une image emplie d'émotion.

Hi Mesut

An old travel sanpshot, remembrance of one of your journeys, but the POV is too high (yo should be at her eyes level) and the shadows are too blue (scan to be improved), the picture too contrasted. Moreover I find disturbing the foot at top right, so I propose you a WS to try to improve your image.
Cheers
CLODO

Hello Mesut! A scene ideal. I love the warm light and small in this image. Also, the shapes of the dynamics of shadows is very attractive.
Sincerely
Best regards
G.

Bonjour Mesut,
cette petite bouille sympathique nous inciterait bien à acheter une ou deux pommes. On dirait que le soleil était très fort, les ombres et les contrastes sont un peu trop marqués.
My best regards.
Daniel.

Selam Mesut,
Eski bir kare, arşiv değeri var ama nedense bana renkleri çok yapmacık geldi.

Hello Mesut,

And smile a day keeps the photographer happy !
Nice portrait of this young girl selling apples. The time has passed and she is now as tall as her shadow on the photo. Nice red colors and good quality for a scan of that era.

Best regards

Jacques

Ciao Mesut,
I too had a Rolleiflex 6x6 ... good times, it seemed to have a treasure in our hands.
Nice picture, which has the charm of the old film images.

Have a nice Weekend.
