Dear Jose, This is a very strong picture. Very sadly, I can see that this is only a partial view. We have a book, in France, called " la Stratégie des antilopes" From Hasfeld, which explain very well what was the daily life of refugees and your picture depicts it well, as in the book.

Hello Jose,
the question mark in the title is perfectly right. It is hard to believe our world looks like that. It really is hard to call that 'living'
Thanks for sharing
Michal

Olá José e antes de mais parabéns por aquilo que faz. Estas fotos mostram-nos um pouco da dura realidade que existe em África. Não deixa de ser uma foto espectacular. Tento tirar tudo de um local através de uma foto, os cheiros, a temperatura, as cores, os sentimentos, o que há para além do horizonte etc. Nesta foto absorvemos muita coisa. Parabéns.

Olá J.Diogo,
Tal como na outra foto, se isto é uma vista parcial...
Impressionante. Não sei o que dizer. Esta série de fotos é demais para mim.
Um abraço,
F

Bonsoir Jose
Je viens de voir ta galerie.
Nous avons quelques points d'intérêt communs, même si je n'ai pas d'expérience des crises aigues. Bravo pour ce témoignagne riche. malgré la dramaturgie des scènes, on ressent une note d'espoir. Félicitations pour ton travail.
Amicalement
Bertrand

Seen from above, this scene lets us feel the scale of the tragedy. Combined with the weather, looks like the end of the world... Vivid colours in tront of it all accurately break the monotony.
Best regards

In this site so full of landscapes, is great to find another one like this one you present us, because we forget so easily José, probably you know better than anyone else here. Congratulations.

What do I say when I look at this photograph? Indeed the people who have been writing Critiques about this shot including me are blessed because we have a permanent roof over our head, food and water and even luxurious commodities like Electricity and communication mediums like the Internet which enables us to share such insight.
What's the future of these people who do not belong anywhere, who have no belongings and who are at the mercy of the Western world to feed them? This is not living, this is simply existing!
No amount of points are a justice to such photographs which are an eye-opener...

Thanks

Blue
