Manolo sent on October 20, 2020 (10:15) by Mauro De Bettio. 24 comments, 1358 views.

, 1/200 f/4.5, ISO 100, hand held.

Ho incontrato il Señor Manolo il 2 ° giorno dei miei 500 km di Camino de Santiago. Era lì ad aspettarmi dopo che ho scalato una montagna che non finiva mai. Dopo una discesa che mi ha spezzato i piedi. Ero in lacrime quando mi accorsi che stava lì a guardarmi, appoggiato ad un vecchio e logoro bastone. Ai piedi un paio di giganteschi zoccoli in legno. Li fisso finché mi fa: "Sono molto comodi, dovresti provarli". Con un enorme sorriso gli chiedo come si chiama. E da una semplice domanda ha iniziato a raccontarmi tutta la sua vita. Una vita intera racchiusa in due, tre capitoli. Pochissimi ma fortemente impressi dentro di lui, e che non vede l'ora di raccontare a tutti quei pellegrini che hanno un briciolo di cuore per fermarsi e chiedergli come sta. “Purtroppo ero il più intelligente di tutti e nove i fratelli, così mio padre mi ha costretto ad andare a studiare a Oviedo. Non volevo ma mi ha mandato lo stesso. A volte essere più intelligenti peggiora le cose .. Dopo la scuola volevo tornare a casa. Volevo una donna e vivere qui nel mio villaggio. Questa volta, però, è arrivato il servizio militare per strapparmi via. Più lontano ancora, in Marocco. Ah, ma non era così male lì, sai? Ho incontrato tante donne! Se solo sapessi quante donne ho baciato.. Dopo due anni mi hanno finalmente rimandato a casa. Non vedevo l'ora di incontrare una ragazza, sposarmi, andare a raccogliere grano e pascolare le mucche. Ma quando sono tornato non c'erano più ragazze per me. Tutti erano già state promesse in sposa. Nessuna più per me. Sono passati 70 anni e da allora non ho più trovato l'amore. Da allora vivo con mia sorella. Neanche lei è stata fortunata .. " "Ora devo andare. Passa a trovarmi ancora".

Beautiful story and beautiful photo, a perhaps sad look that perfectly represents his story.

In addition to the beautiful portrait the story of a lifetime.
Two lives cross for a few minutes and then each resume its own path.

This portrait is wonderful! The expression you have been able to grasp tells the life of Manolo perhaps even better than the beautiful story you gave us. My compliments for this true image!
Eao,

Hi Mauro,
in making you my sincerest compliments, also for the caption, I spontaneously wonder why such an intense and expressive portrait has been so poorly appreciated.
Greetings, Paul

It is an intimate image, less of an effect than others that Mauro has made, but of strong inner intensity. Intensity made more complete by the story and the clear perception of a shot taken by the photographer not only as an image but lived with involvement towards the people he meets and their story.

Amazing character. Of great intensity this face carved in wood. Standing ovation for both of us.

I join the comments, excellent portrait ! from a technical point of view it impresses the remarkable sharpness and the resulting three-dimensional effect. Congratulations indeed!

How beautiful is sharing... life is also made of this: shared feelings (or above all of this?).
:-P
