Beautiful composition and clarity. The man in a turban and galabiyya is a nice touch.

A good warm light tthat moulds the shapes. A fine POV that gives an interesting lineup with some repetition in the second row. And to top it of a human in a strong point and in contrasting colors to get a human presence and set the scales. A good job Hugo!

Nice composition, Hugo !
