1/15 f/1.8, ISO 500, hand held.

In Marocco, tra Erfoud e Tinejdad c'è una oasi lunga decine di chilometri. Ho visto come viene gestito il sollevamento delle acque.... pozzi che si spostano all'indietro di anno in anno (ogni pozzo ha una vita di uno o due anni, poi l'acqua si abbassa di livello e bisogna farne un altro a 1km di distanza... e bisogna scavare a mano, con l'aiuto di zappa e pala, e l'acqua va poi sollevata con i secchi e incanalata verso l'oasi...). E c'è il guardiano del pozzo (i guardiani sono dove ci sono cose pregiate: l'acqua nel nostro caso). La foto la ho scattata con un iPhone 11 (avevo lasciato la fotocamera sul pullman per farla caricare!). Atmosfera difficile raccontare. E' un mix di polvere, di colori, di chiaroscuri e di contrasti. C'è fierezza nello sguardo, c'è l'orgoglio di fare qualcosa di importante (il guardiano del pozzo)... Grazie a Nabil per averci regalato questo momento.
