Salt Farm


"When I approached this boy I gently asked him if I could take a photo which he acknowledged by a simple nod, a smile and soft Thai words 'dai, mai pen rai' literally meaning 'it's ok, no problem'. While taking the photos I just thought about the capability of human suffering. I just imagined if he had a wound how much pain could he endure before he would lose the pay of the day.
At the same time and through the viewfinder of my camera, as the rake moved the salt with heavy duty and fast strokes, I could not unnoticed his six packs and thought about how much protein people nowadays take to get muscle shaped in the gyms while they could have it done on the field... naturally."

Today I went to the park


"This was the first time Florence and I went to the park together and my oh my did she love it. Bradley came along with us and we all laid down under the hot sun and just looked at the beautiful surroundings although we were not pleased by the foul mouthed footballers just across the field".

Chasseurs


"Dozos hunters in Seguelon, Côte d'Ivoire on Feb. 5th 2012, during a gathering of Dozos from Côte d'Ivoire and some other neighbouring countries.

The gathering aimed both at celebrating their traditions and culture and is also an attempt to give this secular brotherhood a formal status into the new state of Côte d'Ivoire.

The Dozos identity and traditions in Côte d'Ivoire have been hampered as some of them have been involved into illicit activities or are said to be responsible for some war crimes, during the 2011 events." Taken by Alexandre Foulon
