The kitchen staff Photo

Photographer’s Note

In February 2001 we attended a traditional pashtoon wedding ceremony in Peshawar. The wedding lasts three days and most of the action takes places in the groom's home. A couple of lambs, a complete oxen and several hundred chickens were prepared in the backyard outside two enormous tents - one for men and one for women - which housed the 200-300 guests. This is just a few members of the kitchen staff with some of the cauldrons used for preparing the wedding dinner.

Well well - now I need a shot from an western hotel kitchen or what ever - (For this theme) surely a big difference in standards here and there ;-) The colourful clothes makes a fine background for your shot - and must be the kitchen "walls" as well - thanks Per for sharing fine view from the world - I cover Fyn and you take the rest ;-))
