Photographer's Note
No these are not the West-African rope-pulling championchip games but this is the way they fish in Benin,
The nets are brought out with little boats and tan after a while the complete village ios gathering to pull them on land, a job that takes several hours and everybody (you can see a woman with child) is doing his part.

ciao Gerrit,
lavoro di gruppo di tutta questa gente unita da un unico obiettivo.
Resa calda dei colori e immagine, in un'epoca di consumismo esasperato, che lascia aperta una rflessione,
un saluto

Hi Gerrit. These African women are a marvelous lot- even contributing here whilst their infants are strapped over their backs. An image with a strong sense of communal effort. Regards. Klaudio.

Hello Gerrit,
An interesting and informative daily life composition. I like the sense of vitality and the way the net snakes across the beach. Also, the warm/cool tonal contrasts.

Boa tarde Gerrit
Super interesting capture. Initially I though that it was the tug-of-war. A very good idea and an excellent register.

Hi Gerrit,
A peculiar way of fishing in this country, in a spontaneous scene of the daily life, very well caught in your framing.
The composition is structured well in thirds, with many vitality due to the presence of the men pulling the fishing nets, under a good light.
A nice work, in the spirit of TE.
Friendly regards,
Josep

Ciao Gerrit!
Bella immagine! Curiosa e interessante la fila di gente che tira la rete e che appare da sotto la spiaggia! Belli i colori con il giallo della sabbia in primo piano e i grigi sul fondo!
Saluti, Nino.
