After The Catch

The lighting was low but the light touched the villagers and the sand dune. This was my first impression of Parang Tritis, Central Java in 1980. The villagers were on the way home after their catch at the nearby seaside . The villagers are shy people always trying to avoid the camera. With my 250mm lens, I captured this image which I felt reflected the calm and cool ambience of the place. This slide won a medal of the Iris Aartrijke International Salon, Belgium, held in 1988.
