EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of life in Africa's Benin, specifically at Lake Nokoua. In this image, a woman gracefully makes her way towards the waterseller in the renowned stilt village of Ganvie. The village itself is an awe-inspiring sight, built entirely on stilts above the water and recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The photograph showcases the unique mode of transportation used by locals - wooden boats and canoes gliding through channels amidst lush greenery and vibrant reflections on the calm lagoon. The woman's presence adds a touch of authenticity to this traditional scene, carrying a water bucket with grace and purpose. As we delve into this picture, we are transported to West Africa, where Lake Nokoue lies peacefully. The composition beautifully highlights both natural elements such as plants and their reflection in the water while emphasizing human activity like rowing and trading. Discover Images by AWL has expertly captured not only a moment frozen in time but also an entire cultural experience within one frame. This print serves as a reminder of how diverse our world truly is; it invites us to appreciate different ways of life that exist beyond our own horizons.
