The wedding dinner - before Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is Hussein, the driver for the family we visited in Pakistan to attend a wedding in 2001. And he is showing me the wedding dinner which is about to be slaughtered and prepared. I promised him I would show this photo around. I suppose with this post I fulfil that promise.
24 hours later he served me a delicious beefstew in curry, which I have posted as workshop. But this animal also fed 200 other guests.

A fine follow up to your former dinner shot - That young bull dosn't seem to be very pleased with the situation - and for a good reason ;-) - fine poses you from both motifs - Thanks Per for showing us daily life / events in this (for me remote) part of the world.

By, it stopper thinks me of the film with Fernandel, during the war. The man poses perfectly for for the camera. Maybe a little overdosis lighting under, but a beautiful picture and composition.
Thanks for visiting my photograph.
