Nubian village Photo

Photographer’s Note

Blue-White simplicity...

Nubian village near Aswan in Egypt. A closed window shutter with traditional painting.

I've noticed nice contrast between blue shutter and white wall.

Visiting Nubians and nubian ethnic village, discovering their unique culture and hearing strange language, quite different from arabian, was an interesting experience for me.

hi Michal,

this photo is so essential, so straightforward in its composition and its colours, that to me it's a little jewel. I like that the position of the window is off-center, and that you left the simple painting speak for itself.

Hello Michal,
yes simple but satisfying. Well composed with the shuttered window perfectly placed. I like the small detail of painted decoration.
regards,
Bev

Piêkne regionalne motywy wokó³ tego okna.Ciekaw jestem,czy to tylko dekoracja,czy te¿ maj± jakie¶ ukryte znaczenia?£adna skromna lecz ujmuj±ca kompozycja.
Pozdrawiam,T.
