Hidden among piles of sugar cane Photo

Photographer’s Note

One of the many workers at this Sugar Cane near San Isidro. The working conditions are terrible and very dangerous. I don't want to say much more, but everyone stay tuned for Mark Gong's article he will write about the working conditions for Sugar Cane workers in Nicaragua. Its hard to imagine that some of the sugar you are eating which is so enjoyable could come from a place so disgusting.

This is where the sugar cane is dropped off, it is then brought inside the plant where they boil it and chop it up, + many steps before they package it as the white sugar we know.

This is a nice one very informative, and showing a important activity from these countries.
The composition is well framed, and from a very good quality.
Nice true colors and strong details from the sugar cane.
