Photographer's Note
he second day in the west we went at the chiefferie Bandjoun; very tourist they said but we were alone in the morning and especially in this year when the tourism was in real decline.
the most famous building is the large, 17-metre-high, hut decorated with sculptures; it is made of bamboo tied by strong raffia strings, its roof is supported by carved pillars symbolizing the ancestors and offering traditional representations. I photographed almost all of them... but only two WS!
the sky is overexposed... but otherwise the building was underexposede

Salut Christine,
Intéressante vue de ce bâtiment à l'architecture traditionnelle des lieux, bons compléments en WS, une tonalité chaude qui rend bien.

Bonjour, chère Christine,
Des images du bout du monde ! Je me contente de l'hexagone, ma femme ne supporte pas l'avion !
Une composition étonnante et fort bien présentée.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hello Christiane, Nice view of this hut with the conical roof. I saw similar ones in Senegal and always it was a great joy.
Best regards Malgo
