Colorful sand, a photo from Red Sea, Inland

Photographer's Note

One of the most common souvenir stalls Egyptian these bottles that are filled with colored sand, really interesting to follow the manufacturing process manual.

SABBIA COLORATA

Uno dei souvenir più comuni sulle bancarelle egiziane sono queste bottigliette che vengono riempite con sabbia colorata,davvero interessante seguire il processo di fabbricazione manuale.

Ciao Luciano,
quella di oggi è una simpatica composizione molto ricca non solo di colore, ma che espone anche oggetti che sono uno diverso dall'altro per cui è anche piacevole perdersi nella loro singola visione.
Ottima anche la nitidezza, l'illuminazione e giusto il contrasto piuttosto morbido.
Ciao e buona domenica
Romano

Buongiorno Luciano
piacevole e colorata immagine, particolare il taglio, lasciando la prima e l'ultima fila incomplete, strano per te, sempre molto attento e rigoroso al millimetro, ma una scelta molto azzeccata, che rende più interessante la foto.
Buona domenica
Carlo

PaulVDV (62892) 2013-01-27 3:18

Hello Luciano,
Here at home I also have such a bottle with coloured sand grains. Also from Egypt. I think I bought it in Siwa. I haven't been at the Red Sea.
Too bad I never saw the manufacturing process. It must be a very precise job.
The picture shows the colourful figures and patterns very clearly and with great sharpness.
Best regards, Paul

ikeharel (113345) 2013-01-27 3:24

That's an amazing art, Luciano.
The desert in Egypt and also some places in the Negev-desert in Israel can offer a lavish range of sand-colors, natural's.
Here someone applied a unique technique, for tourists of course, but I admit - a masterpiecec.
Well spotted and shown.
Buona domenica,
Ike

Ciao Luciano,

Such a bright and colorful photo, it really catches your attention. Another smart recognition of the every day surroundings and arranging/framing them into an artistic type presentation. It's fascinating that this has all been done with sand. The slight reflections on the faces of the bottles create a subtle and intriguing effect. Nicely done. Have a great week ahead.

Cheers,

Jason

Ciao Luciano,
este tipo de trabajo con la arena y los dibujos de colores dentro de una botella lo habían hecho también mis hijos cuando eran unos niños.
Me gusta el grafismo y el bonito colorido de estas botellas y sus hermosos dibujos de arena, que nos presentas en un buen encuadre cerrado para que nada nos distraiga del tema que propones.
Es una composición muy atractiva y muy agradable para mí, porque me evoca buenos recuerdos.
Un abbraccio,
Josep

maria-v1981 (10966) 2013-01-28 4:45

hi Luciano,
A beautiful local craft, and one which makes a fantastic abstract and colourful image. I think I would have to buy one of these if I was here :) Really nicely seen, the colours and shapes in their horizontal lines work really well.
All the best

Hello dear Luciano,
Nice capture of those beautiful "sandart" s from Egypt ! The capture has great graphical effect. I dont know if you had the chance to watch the artists when preparing them, it's a real artwork how they fill the sands in small portions with very thin tubes step by step and fill the glasses from bottom to top for hours and hours !
TFS and best regards

npecanhuk (79329) 2013-01-28 15:46

Ciao Luciano!
They're beautiful and so is your picture of them!
I love the colors! Composition also pleased me a lot!
Well... when I first visited the northeastern region of Brazil back in 1995 (Natal - Rio Grande do Norte), I found those small colorful sand bottles too... then, in 1997 (Fortaleza - Ceará), once more! Well, I think one can find those all over the northeastern region of Brazil and now... gee... even in Egypt!!! LOL That's globalization!
Cheers,
Neyvan

delpeoples (60342) 2013-01-29 1:52

Caro Luciano

Sono sempre colpito dal modo in cui hanno fatto queste bottiglie di sabbia. Fanno un bel grafismo e la luce é bellissima. Le bottigle colorate cosi fanno un gran colpo di occhio, il quale hai catturato perfettemente. Complimenti.

Grazie per le tue parole gentile riguarde l'incendie. O fuoco o alluvione, Australia vive dei brutti momenti al momento.

Un abbraccio

Hi Luciano,

in Brazil northeast is common this kind of art too. I have one made in Ceará state where the handcraft man put my name inside the bottle with the dunes and sea as background, and other where he made my soccer time shell. A very dificult thing to do.

Beautiful photo of this egyptian art, nice colors and details you got.
Regards
Andre

jmdias (115156) 2013-06-18 2:50
