The essence of travel.Thank you friends...:salute:
Here I am in a village. Not one tourist in sight. In front are rice fields.
Left and right of me are the farmers' small huts. A cow shed. A poultry housing.
I sit down on the grass. There is cow dung around.
The farmers are curious to see me. More so than I them. I shake hands, say hello.
The women folk join in. There is about 15 of us.
I cannot, unfortunately, say more than ' hello' and ' thank you '.
A few minutes pass. Lovely people, lovely smiles.
A baby becomes interested in my camera and the strap. 5 months old. I pick her
Up and in my lap. She begins to play with the strap. Wanting to chew it.
The camera is an object of interest for her. I let her hold it in her small hands.
Where am I from? At last they know the region. Tea is brought forth. We move closer to each other. Now the infants are playing with my backpack. I offer tic tac
All around.
We don't speak the same. But we understand each other.
I want to leave as a friend. One they might not see again. Or I them.
For a brief time, language is not a barrier.
Hello Vietnam!
Stellar Rayyan! Is it still the 24-120 or? and of course the Df I presume. Such a picture make me dream of a Df as a second camera to the X-T2.Thanks friends :salute:
Jorgen..indeed the essence of travel, as you said.
Hi Rayyan,yes I know (the stellar Fuji)(and the wonderful light-weight) but I just have to get used to the X-T2, viewfinder functions etc.Hello Thorkil.
No it is with the 50/1.8. I just carried that lens with the Df.
You now Thorkil, the Fujis are stellar too.
Best regards to you and yours.
