EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, an old woman tends to her mobile food stall in the Roman Harbour of Antalya, located on the Turquoise Coast of Southern Turkey. The scene is set against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea, with the sun beginning to set and casting a warm, hazy glow over the area. The woman, dressed in traditional Turkish attire, expertly roasts chestnuts over an open flame, the smoke rising from the chimney of her stall adding to the ambiance of the evening. The image is captured in contrajeunet, or backlit, with the sunlight filtering through the haze and casting an ethereal light over the scene. The woman's face is illuminated, her expression one of focus and determination as she tends to her wares. The scene is quiet and peaceful, with the sound of the sea lapping against the shore providing a soothing soundtrack. Despite the simple setting, there is a sense of timelessness and tradition in this image. The woman's mobile food stall has been a fixture in the harbor for generations, and her method of roasting chestnuts remains unchanged. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of life on the Turkish Riviera in the late 1980s. The Turquoise Coast, with its crystal-clear waters and stunning natural beauty, has long been a popular destination for travelers, and this image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the region. Overall, this photograph is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the simple pleasures in life, and the enduring traditions that connect us to our past. The old woman's dedication to her craft, the warmth of the evening sun, and the soothing sounds of the sea all combine to create a scene that is at once timeless and deeply evocative.
