EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the picturesque highlands of Madagascar near Ambalavao. Standing tall and proud is an old double-storied house, showcasing the typical architecture of the region. The thatched roof adds a touch of rustic charm, while the wooden balcony and outside staircase exude a sense of history. What catches our attention immediately are the maize cobs hanging from the balcony, gently swaying in the breeze. It's evident that this traditional practice is employed to dry them out for later use. This simple yet practical method showcases how people in these remote areas make use of their surroundings and adapt to their environment. As we take in every detail, it becomes apparent that life here moves at its own pace - one where time seems to stand still amidst breathtaking natural beauty. Perhaps inside this old house, blankets are being aired on sunlit windowsills or stories are shared around crackling fires during chilly evenings. This photograph by NP captures not just a moment frozen in time but also provides us with a glimpse into Malagasy culture and architectural heritage. It reminds us of how traditions have been passed down through generations and continue to shape daily life even today. Discover Images by AWL offers us an opportunity to appreciate such unique glimpses into different corners of our world – moments captured forever through photography.
