Spices Seller, a photo from Kalimantan Timur, Kalimantan

Photographer's Note

Java (Indonesian, Javanese, and Sundanese: Jawa) is an island of Indonesia, and the site of its capital city, Jakarta. It is the most populous island, and one of the most densely-populated regions in the world. The former site of powerful Hindu kingdoms and the core of the colonial Dutch East Indies, Java now plays a dominant role in the economic and political life of Indonesia.

This photo was taken in Yogyakarta, inside its main market. The profusion of colors, shapes and life is unique. It'a spicy country. I miss it!

I hope you enjoy!

PS: I apologise for the 500px larger side and watermark in the frame, but some unauthorized use has happened before in other websites (including mine). I know this spoils teh pleasure of seeing larger images and I truly apologise for that. Thanks for undersatanding.

Hi Joel,

I like very much the composition of this picture, and even more the colours...it has a very good atmosphere to it!

Have a nice weekend, Ivana

Another fantastic shot with nice sharpness and detail. The peppers look great and the lighting enriches their green and red colors.

Il est dommage de ne pas pouvoir admirer cette trčs belle photo dans un plus grand format. Je comprends tes craintes de voir ta photo utilisée par d'autres mais c'est le principe de TE de partager ses images avec les autres, donc ŕ partir de lŕ, je crois qu'il faut jouer le jeu ou ne plus poster ici.
Amicalement
JJ
