These two woman dressed in one of the many traditional Balinese dresses, are ready for the Ceremony. Meanwhile, is a good time to have a nice talk. Always beautiful to our eyes.
It's always amazing to see how the old people are always busy. Specially if we compare them with our western countries where most of the people just sit on a chair waiting to die. This beautiful woman never stops. Until the last breath. Lovely.
This woman is waiting for a new baby. I like pregnant women so much. When I let her see the picture she exclaimed: "I'm ugly". Nothing on earth is more delicated. Thank you Ibu. You are simply beautiful.
As everyday, this young lady joins her mother to celebrate the offerings. This is how they learn the traditions. This time she saw me, and the box of matches she had on her hands dropped to the floor. Wonderful.
One of my favorites times to go out with the camera is when is totally desert. Is then, when the composition of the objects spontaneously create the photo. It was raining again.
This old lady posed for me and I asked her to hold in her hands some flowers. The combination of textures between them and how softly she hold the flowers, make this picture very special to me.
As every animal living in Bali, they are free to move all around. However, thousands of birds live inside cages. They consider birds as an animal that gives good luck.
Many people don't have yet water at home. So when it's "mandi" time, as they have been doing during hundreds of years, the river is the place for cleaning themselves. Amazing.
Again at Denpasar's Central Market, one of my favorites places. This woman, having only half left arm, doesn't imagine how beautiful she appears on the picture. God bless u Ibu.
Very close to Denpasar's Central Market. This mother and her two children are having a rest. It's so lovely to see how this young mother takes care of her children's sleep. And they are enjoying a very sweet dream... just on the street.
When there's a traffic accident and someone dies, which is very often unfortunately, many people stop by. After covering the corpse with plastics or whatever they can find, the people "help" the family with some money. I got really surprised the first time.
Out of the touristic routs is where I find the beautiful and always pictoric and photogenic inspiration. Lights and shadows creating a bucolic scenery.
To me, is at the rice fields where maybe the essence of tradition appears strongly because of the straight connection with Mother Earth and the omnipresent rice.
This mother and her little baby are having a rest in a very hot day at Denpasar. I found this image totally lovely and endearing. Doesn't matter if they are on the street. On his mother's arms he is gonna always be protected.
