Workforce in Brick Factory

Life is hard for the rural population around Peshawar.

Thanks forcomments and rating. Karl

Excellent image.

DoF: perfect

Range of grays: perfect

Contrast of age and youth: perfect

Compositions with the sharp face of the worker and the background of bricks and factories: perfect

Its a great image from a journalistic as well as artistic point of view. 

7/7 for me.

Completely agree with the above. A stunning and very powerful image. It feels Dickensian to me. 

Powerful image, caught my attention.  Good use of gray tones to invoke the mood. You could have easily blackened it more for more dark feel but I like it being a little lighter--kind of gives me hope instead of dispair. Background is almost painterly but connects with the brick making.  Just a great image.

Hallo Karl,

leider ist die Gegend ja aktuell wirklich "out of reach"... das Bild ist sehr gut, zeigt es doch das von der harten Arbeit zerfurchte Gesicht, die Ziegel mit den Kindern, die auch schon arbeiten müssen und die Brennerei im Hintergrund - da passt echt alles!

Wonderful shot! The background is just as interesting as the man's expression! Great tones and composition. Very well done. Thank you for sharing. :)
