Opening Day II

Opening Day at the local flower fields was Monday. For me photography there is a study in contrast. There is the exuberance of the tourists (see yesterday's post) juxtaposed with the difficult, manual labor of the workers tending the fields. All occurring amidst incredible natural beauty. I am working on projects to tell both stories.

Perfectly focused. The woman seems so hard at work and oblivious to the beauty around her. V

An exceptional image, especially with the narrow DOF, it really focuses your attention
to the figure.

Striking depiction of both the natural beauty and the backbreaking labor involved.

an engaging view...there is a clear contrast between the hard labour needed, and the idyllic workplace where it unfolds...cool that one flower seems to be sit on the hat..

Stoop labor. Almost overwhelmed with it. Your images of the past gave me insight as to the work required just for cut flowers.
