Swazi dancers, a photo from Lubombo, Southeast

Photographer's Note

A photo of Swazi girls dancing at a "cultural" experience. This show was put on probably several times a day for tourists. The village were it took place did not seem to be occupied but specially built. As such i found it entertaining rather than instructional.

Interesting subject. Get in closer to capture some of the human spirit!

I appreciate seeing this shot of the people of Swaziland whom I'm praying for today. And although the scene is "touristed up", it still tells much of how the people seek to make a living there.

You did well here considering the strong light, and while the space to the right may have skewed the composition, I like seeing the hut, so beautifully shaped and constructed.

Thank you for showing me another part of this complex, endlessly fascinating world we live in!
