Tonight a new little serie. The first of a serie of 3.
This one has been taken in the province of Chantabury, not far from the sea. There was a big field of rice, and a group of women working here, cuting the rice.
At first I was very surprised because I've never imagine that a field of rice could be so high (long). The colors where incredible, and these women, working hard with a very hot sun... they where fantastic, and came to speak with us. But as always they don't speak a word of english... but we laugh together, they were happy to see us, and to make a short pause. We had some bottles of water with us, then we divide them with them.
One thing sad, in Thailand as in a lot of countries of Africa, is to see that women work hard during all the day, but I can't tell the same thing about men..... No comment more, you'll understand by yourself ;o))))
Anyway I love these shots.
I've made these shots with an exposure of 1/60 sec and a diaphragm of 5.6 - ISO 200.
My series make me think of course to some shots of DELMUR..... but Jean-Pierre has photographied garlic fields and not rice, lol !
This one is for you Jean-Pierre !!!!!
