Daily News" Taroudant, Morocco |
I
had spent 3 weeks chasing after the Moroccan woman to photograph them. Other than a single Berber woman, they would have no
part of me. Their culture dictates that
they do not want their photograph taken.
Seemingly defeated I wandered about the town of Taroudant capturing a bit of the architecture
and the local children on their way off to school. A cup of coffee is in order. I sat at a café just outside of the Bab
al-Kasbah and watched life go by. As I am about to leave I notice a small group
of Roudani woman dressed in their colorful haiks seated on the curb
gossiping. I learn that they meet here
every day to catch up on their daily lives. The oldest form of communication – verbal
story telling.
What do you think they
are talking about?
I am delighted – an
entire photo story in one image. I
capture this image & title it “Daily News.”
