Photographer’s Note

This man is searching for etain (in french)in the sand of a dry oued.He takes the sand,coming from a near volcanic mountain, in his hands, shake to separate the big parts and the small ones, and then he blows (workshop) just to keep the metal.
In this place, no water, no food, nothing at all.
For the water, an old 4x4 go to the nearer point of water with a 200 l tank( workshop of yesterday).I will post a second workshop to show you what kind of place it is in full desert.

I like how you captured the action here. The earth tones are all the same, yet there is good contrast throughout the picture.
Also, your linked series is very good to give the photo more context.
