Matonge - June 21-04

The Matonge is a big sector of some 20 street blocs in Brussels where the black community, mainly africans from Zaire, Rwanda and some other countries, live and make there business.
A place where street life and music is at home.

Every year in June the black community has a street fiesta with barbecues, blues and rap, djembe drums and a lot of fun. A place I enjoy because of it's coulourfull scene and the rythm of music that is proper to the black people.

I love the activity in this one. I love how the two women are in focus, with the foreground and background out! It draws your eyes into what they are doing.

Such an active and alive scene! It's fun to pick out what each individual is doing.
