Looks like quite an adventure.
Your market shots tell a great story...

Some stunning shots there. I love the river one. Great series.

Damn Brit · 05-04-2008, 06:23 PM

Wonderful shots Dominique, makes me want to go there.

I have a favor to ask. There is a really nice old guy named Gover who works in the gas station near where I work. He comes from Madagascar and I'm pretty sure he's never been back there. Would you mind if I printed copies of these pics to give to him.

If you say no, I will understand and you have my word of honor that I will not print them, I'll just take my macbook in and show them to him on the screen.

Regards,
Gary

Thanks Tcom for taking us on a small tour of Madagascar. Being a small town hick I doubt I will ever go to such a place...

Your series is very well done... thanks so much for sharing it...

I remember from my own travels in Madagascar those baobob trees and the ubiquitous THB signs (Three Horses Beer). Nice shots.

tcom · 05-04-2008, 08:50 PM

Thank you for all your comments.

Gary: no problem, you can print them if you want.

Ole · 05-04-2008, 08:56 PM

Great shots all of them! Not only great technically but they also tell a story about life on Madagascar!

Fritz · 05-04-2008, 09:18 PM

A very nice series! I really enjoyed seeing these shots.

Definitely different then the scenery I'm used to looking at.

Awesome work!

I love the composition of #1 and how one kid is offset in #2...and the beach shot. My 3 favs, but they're all great

!

Oh, and lovely lovely sky in the last one. Beautiful stuff.

tcom · 05-05-2008, 02:29 AM

Thank you for all your comments.

On this trip, I not only wanted to see the lemurs, but also tried to capture the everyday life, as far as this is possible as tourists are a welcome distraction from their everyday life.
