All Saints Day Photo

Photographer’s Note

All Saints day is one of most importand holidays in Poland. Everybody leaves his house to visit his ancestors and spare a few minutes to pray for their souls. Usually we light special candle called "znicz" and put some flowers on the graves.
Of course, capitalism is very present in Poland, so there are plenty of people that allow us not to worry about candles and flowers and sell them in front of the cemeterys. Jus pay. For some this is a day to day business, but for some this is one day when they earn fr schools, studies etc using this one day holiday when every Pole leaves his home to visit his ancestors.
Photo shows a girl that earns money for studies.

Hi Marcin, I think you captured a special moment here. The colours are obviously outstanding, but what mainly attracts me is the mood you created, putting this girl so central. She is very much tight up in her thoughts and doesn't seem to take notice of the anonymous people passing by around here, while her thoughts must be with some beloved ones. Very special shot, thank you! Sabine
