Chiapa de Corzo (regione del Chapas). - - - In molte zone del Messico, ed in particolare nel Chapas, alcuni abitanti sono molto fedeli alle loro usanze e sono soliti indossare con orgoglio i loro costumi tradizionali. Ho seguito a lungo con lo sguardo e con l'obiettivo questa bellissima coppia (presumo mamma e figlia) e sono felice di aver colto questo scambio affettuoso tra di loro. In seguito mi sono avvicinata e, complimentandomi per la bellezza dei loro colorati indumenti, sono riuscita a far sì che la bimba mi concedesse volontariamente di fotografarla. Alla fine si è divertita un sacco a fare da modella ed è stato bello ridere assieme a lei. In effetti, i messicani non amano affatto farsi fotografare dai turisti e, in molti casi, ciò è associato al fatto che unitamente alla religione cattolica, diffusa e spesso purtroppo imposta dai conquistadores e dagli ordini religiosi che li seguirono, persiste molto forte la credenza animista. Questo sincretismo religioso e culturale spesso si palesa in espressioni che a noi appaiono parossistiche ma che, personalmente, non ritengo vadano giudicate solo perché non rientranti nella nostra cultura. Di fatto, che ci si creda o no, per molte di queste persone, la fotografia (in particolare quella che "catturi gli occhi") ruba l'anima del soggetto ritratto. Per questa ragione, in molti casi, sono colpevole di aver "rubato" dei ritratti seppur io abbia cercato di farlo nel modo più discreto e meno invadente possibile.

On your sensibility as a photographer I was wrong, this shot is proof glaring waiting to close when the situation that was being created was at the height of its expression. Still many compliments. Hello.

Of your photos 'Indian' this is the one I like the most, not only for the folk clothes with incredible colors but the attitude of the child to the mother accomplice. Bella!

Thank you very much for appreciating this photo Joseph who, to tell the truth, it is also one of my favorites ;-)
The attitude between the two is simplicity, and at the same time an intensity, in this beautiful ... the photographer has no merit, if not to have seized the moment.
A greeting! :-)

A nice picture with a good shot and, finally :-), a pdr not too high.
I guess this photo made with a fixed lens large aperture that would give one
background more blurred by turning it into a masterpiece .... ;-)
I sense your right intention since you've used the widest aperture possible.
Brava! Compliments.
