at 145mm, 1/250 f/4.5, ISO 64, hand held. Namib-Naukluft Park, Namibia.

Gli Himba, gruppo etnico indigeno che vive principalmente nelle remote regioni nord-occidentali della Namibia, sono una comunità pastorale semi-nomade che vive in un ambiente arido e semidesertico. Il loro aspetto è unico, e include la copertura della pelle e dei capelli con una una pasta cosmetica tradizionale chiamata otjize, miscela di ocra rossa, grasso di burro e varie erbe aromatiche. Questa miscela conferisce alla pelle e ai capelli una caratteristica tonalità rossastra. Le donne sono particolarmente note per le loro acconciature intricate, che riflettono la loro età, lo status sociale e la fase della vita. Ad esempio, le ragazze portano due trecce (chiamate ozondato), mentre le donne sposate e le madri sfoggiano acconciature più elaborate, spesso con ornamenti fatti di conchiglie, perline e peli di animali. L'abbigliamento Himba è minimalista, ma altamente simbolico; le donne indossano tipicamente gonne di pelle di vitello e si adornano con gioielli artigianali in ferro, rame, conchiglie e gusci d'uovo di struzzo. Le famiglie Himba vivono in semplici capanne a cupola adatte allo stile di vita nomade e costruite con una combinazione di bastoni, fango e sterco di mucca. Queste abitazioni sono disposte in complessi familiari circolari, solitamente incentrati attorno a un fuoco sacro, che rappresenta il legame spirituale tra i vivi e i loro antenati. Il fuoco viene curato regolarmente e ha un profondo significato religioso e culturale.

In altre immagini ho mantenuto tutto quello che c'era, qui ho preferito eliminarlo. Ho quindi recuperato i piedi da un'altra immagine dello stesso bimbo, molto simile a questa per inquadratura. Mi dispiaceva cancellarlo completamente.

I don't understand why adding the child on the left, even in a very coarse way, the shot (without the child) would be pleasant.
Greetings, Ambrogio.

Stupendous.... colors, light, fantastic subjects.... I may seem cynical but the thing that struck me most is the padlock on the door. :-o :-D
Nice proposal

Congratulations, Elisabetta, for this photographic and anthropological immersion in a culture and context distant from us. An interesting and rewarding read accompanied by an equally significant photo. Until next time
