Indonésie rurale - a photo on Flickriver

Indonésie rurale

            Bali (Indonésie) - Il vient de pleuvoir, je me suis réfugié dans une palmeraie. L’averse passée, le soleil revient immédiatement, comme souvent en Asie. Je reprends ma route et un kilomètre plus loin, je tombe sur un paysage à tomber par terre. 
A l’époque, il m’arrive encore de photographier des paysages sans présence humaine. Je m’arrête sur le bord de la route qui surplombe des cultures en terrasses. 
Quelques photos plus tard je m’apprête à repartir quand j’aperçois en contre-bas cet homme qui remonte tranquillement. 
Je lui adresse un petit signe en guise de" bonjour" auquel il répond. Quand il arrive à ma hauteur, je fais cette photo. Nous parlons quelques instants sans vraiment nous comprendre. Mais le courant passe visiblement. 
Pour cette photo, je n'ai pas respecté la composition classique en plaçant le sujet pratiquement au centre de l'image car je voulais intégrer un bout de rizière que l'on aperçoit en arrière-plan sur la droite de l'image. Ce portrait aurait eu moins d'intérêt sans son environnement.. Et puis les deux paniers remplis d'herbe rééquilibrent l’ensemble.


Rural indonesia

Bali (Indonesia) - It just rained and I took refuge in a palm grove. After the downpour, the sun returns immediately, as it often does in Asia. I resume my journey and a kilometer further, I come across a landscape to die for.
Back then, I still photographed landscapes without human presence. I stop on the side of the road which overlooks terraced crops.
A few photos later I am about to leave when I see this man quietly ascending below.
I give him a little sign as a "hello" to which he responds. When he gets to my height, jej take this photo. We speak for a few moments without really understanding each other, each in their own language. But the current is visibly flowing.
For this photo, I did not respect the classic composition by placing the subject practically in the center of the image because I wanted to integrate a piece of rice field that can be seen in the background on the right of the image. This portrait would have been less interesting without its environment. And then the two baskets filled with grass rebalance the whole.
