Hesitation in front of the grocer... Photo

Photographer’s Note

Scene of life in a village of the Peruvian altiplano. Inhabitants, peasants and mountain dwellers, because we are to 3500 m of altitude are a little surprised to see Europeans with their camera on the place of the village.

Nice shot dominique. I like the face's expressions. What a shame you didn't take the third character in the back ground (the nice woman close to the wall). It would be perfect.

nice colorful daily life scene I like the expression on the grocer's face- I wonder what she's selling...
too bad we can't see the woman on the left completely because she looks like she's wearing a typical colorful costume.

Their faces are great, as if they seen a rare occurrence, almost frightned but with a touch of curiosity. The smiling woan is great her face is blocked but you can tell the smile is there. great textures and there is a feeling of dusty and sun dried conditions.

Superb scene. It looks very convincing and truly.

Cette image me fait penser à une scène de film. L'expression des personnages est hilarante et puis surtout, le tout est bien cadré, bien rendu. Merci.
