EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vibrant and culturally rich photograph, we witness the traditional practice of shoeing a mule at the bustling Berber market south of Marrakech. The image captures the essence of Morocco's rural landscape, where ancient customs and trades continue to thrive. A magnificent mule stands tall against a backdrop of vivid colors that reflect the energy and diversity of this vibrant country. A group of skilled male workers, clad in traditional Berber attire, meticulously tend to the animal with utmost care and expertise. Their weathered hands expertly shape iron horseshoes while engaging in animated conversations about their craft. The scene is alive with activity as other people go about their daily routines amidst an array of goods on display for trade. The air is filled with sounds: the rhythmic clanging of metal against metal, lively chatter between vendors and customers negotiating deals, and occasional braying from nearby animals. This snapshot transports us into a world where hard work intertwines seamlessly with cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that despite modern advancements, some traditions remain deeply rooted within communities like these. Photographed by CM Dixon (Mike Dixon), it encapsulates not only a specific moment but also represents an enduring connection between man and working animals in this enchanting corner of Morocco.
