Souk, a photo from Marrakech, South

Photographer's Note

After the night and winter version, here's something summer and daytime from the alleys of the souk of Marrakech. Obviously during the day life comes alive and every corner offers shopping opportunities for tourists, but round and round are always the same things ...

Dopo la versione notturna e invernale, ecco qualcosa di estivo e diurno dai vicoli del souk di Marrakech. Ovviamente di giorno la vita si anima ed ogni angolo offre opportunita' di acquisti per i turisti, ma gira e rigira sono sempre le stesse cose...

Bonsoir Luciano,

Tu as bien captur� une sc鈩e de la vie quotidienne. La prise de vue permet de voir entre la femme et l'artiste ou le vendeur. La lumi鑽e donne un bon rendu aux couleurs de l'image. Bonne soir馥.

Pierre

Buongiorno Luciano,
Small talk on daily-life scene in the Souk.
In Hebrew we also saw the same word for a market: Shuk (pronounces Sh-ook).Colorfil dispaly of painting and well taken through the narrow alley. Attractive old lamps hanging there, worth a closer picture...
Have a nice sunday,
Ike

COSTANTINO (116377) 2021-05-08 22:31

hello dear friend Luciano
a different photo from the usuals
bringing memories from a different
way of living...
this is an old photo but my personal
opinion is that sometimes the old
photos are better from the recent ones
regards
Costantino

Hello Luciano,
A very nicely composed photo with the arch of the narrow alley perfectly used as a frame for the glimpse of daily life. I wouldn't buy any of those paintings, but they provide a colourful background to the small group of persons. There were strong contrasts between light and dark areas, but you managed a good compromise of exposure.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Luciano.
Wonderful composition, with all the ingredients to make it relevant, the effect of the lights and shadows that frame the scene, with the family scene next to the paintings sold in that corner of the souk.
Excellent POV, with very good lighting, color and sharpness to enjoy the details.
Very good work. I like
Enjoy a happy Sunday.
Very best regards.
Luis.

I can't believe you never posted these photos from your trips to Morocco and managed to hide them for a decade!
Great street scene with three great characters, nicely framed by the narrow alley in front of you.

Hi Luciano,
Wonderful daily life view through this gate. Paintings for sale make a good photo theme and I like those colours. The look of the little boy is precious.

Hello Luciano,
A great and very well-exposed photo of the man, child and woman in front of the art display on the other side of the gate, which provided a good frame. The play of light and shadows is also very good.

Ciao Caro Luciano,

By this well chosen viewpoint, you have allowed us to surreptitiously eavesdrop on the interior of this shop. You have immediately gained our attention. (Are we all curious?)
I would love to hear the conversation!
Is the man being instructed on the care of a child, whilst the mother goes shopping, or is she really a customer!
Whatever, it's a fine, daily life capture!

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Bonsoir Luciano,

A good daily life scene of the talented artist in the backstreets with a prospective buyer. Good colour and framing with perfect sharpness and lighting. Tfs!

Hi Luciano
A great photo of one of those great souk photo opportunities.
Cheers
Ian

jean113 (27819) 2021-05-10 11:24

Hello Luciano, a quiet corner in the souk maybe?
A good point of view through the arch where we see a family perhaps, and paintings for sale.
The characters are perfectly framed.
I like the textures of the arch etc., in the foreground.
Kind regards, Jean.

PaulVDV (62846) 2021-05-10 14:46

Hello Luciano,
I imagine that in the medina of Marrakech you found dozens of wonderful opportunities to take such beautiful photos.
Has anyone ever complained that you should not have taken the photo and insisted that it be removed? It happened to me :)
Beautiful framing with the wooden beam on top, the darker area at the bottom and the two side walls.
I see that lanterns were also offered for sale.
Attractive colours of the walls.
Best regards, Paul

Ciao Luciano,
so you are back to Marrakesh and I am back to Portugal.
Those were great times and photos help us to refresh great memories. This is one of the main reason I am on TE and why I take photos in general.
Let's hope we can soon make fresh memories :)
Nice capture here with great framing and a family scene in the souk,
Very well done,
M

Hi Luciano
This is lovely - the warmth of the shot, great lightning, shade & shadow along with good detail. The door makes a great frame for the people. Well done.
Best regards

Hello Luciano
You show us a beautiful view of everyday life. The woman-to-man conversation highlights the image. Good exposure strikes a good balance between light and dark. Well seen
