Of that pyre sent on April 08, 2016 (9:39) by Memy. 8 comments, 698 views.

at 70mm, 1/250 f/4.0, ISO 400,

Durante un trasferimento nella regione dei Bilhala, siamo stati attratti da un assembramento di persone in una piccola valletta alberata e, quando ci siamo fermati per chiederne la ragione, siamo stati inviatati ad assistere ad una cerimonia funebre dai familiari. I parenti stretti stavano sistemando la legna sulla salma contornate da decine di persone e con l' accompagnamento di una piccola banda che suonava musica festosa il tutto condito da una buona dose di un distillato locale.... Una volta finito di sistemare la legna, il fratello il figlio ( ritratto nella foto ), i nipoti maschi hanno sparato in aria alcuni colpi di fucile e poi si sono tutti allontanati lasciando la pira a bruciare da sola e spostandosi nel campo vicino per bere e mangiare e per lasciare un obolo alla famiglia. Sto organizzando il mio prossimo viaggi in India a novembre per fotografare le fiere dei cammelli in Rajasthan e visitare villaggi in zone semi-sconociute della regione ma in questi giorni sta prendendo forma anche un secondo progetto a Marzo..... se qualcuno è interessato può contattarmi fin da ora in mp.

There are situations where you can't get close and others where I use 10/22 or 17/40 but then I end up preferring photos taken with telephoto ... In the end, it's always a matter of taste and it's also what allows us to take different photos even if you're photographing the same scene. With animals I like to shoot a few centimeters from the muzzle while I don't really like to place myself a few tens of centimeters from the face of a person with whom many times you can't even exchange a word, but there is chance and chance and it all depends on the situation.
