at 27mm, 1/100 f/5.6, ISO 200, hand held. Assuan, Egypt.

Questa foto l'ho scattata in uno dei miei tanti viaggi in Egitto, e precisamente ad Assuan. E' una fabbrica, dove una cinquantina di egiziani di tutte le età (solo uomini), lavorano gesso, argilla, e altro materiale, ricavandone, capitelli, statuette, simboli dell'antico Egitto. Ormai è di rigore, quando si va in crociera o ci si affida a un viaggio organizzato, la guida di turno, vi accompagna in questi posti, per acquistare oggetti, tuniche, papiri e souvenirs di tutti i generi. I prezzi sono abbastanza modesti, ma se ti lasci prendere la mano, spendi un capitale. Ho parlato con qualcuno di questi artigiani, guadagnano una miseria e di ore ne fanno spesso, anche dodici al giorno. Mi hanno detto che chi guadagna bene, in questo Paese, sono i proprietari di barche e feluche che, accompagnano i turisti in giro per il Nilo, o i fortunati possessori di una laurea in lingue che, lavora presso i vari Tour Operator. Amhed, mi dice: "Lo stipendio di una guida è basso, ma i veri soldi, e anche tanti, li fanno a fine tour, quando il capo gruppo, gli consegna, quello che ha raccolto dall'intero gruppo. Chi ha i soldi per comprarsi una barca o una feluca, vive bene, perché anche a lui, in cambio di servizi supplementari, vengono date delle buone mance." Mi ha poi detto, che si stava bene al tempo di Nasser, poi, solo desolazione e povertà. " Ma il povero Amhed, doveva conoscere tempi ancora peggiori, come gli attuali, in cui, grazie al terrorismo, un Paese, che stava risorgendo grazie al turismo di massa, è risprofondato nella miseria più nera. Un brutto destino per un Paese che è stato un vero faro di civiltà e progresso ancor prima dell'antica Grecia e dell'Impero Romano. Commenti, consigli e critiche sempre super graditi. Grazie.

Very true what you say. Unfortunately, the poor has a face.
The shot is beautifully clean and very natural.
Good day Annamaria
