Artist's Comments

An Iftar party in Surabaya

Daily Deviation

Given 2009-05-02

"Iftar is the name for the first meal in the evening, during Ramadan (and also the first day after the month of Ramadan which is a special celebration). It somehow and very litterally means "breakfast". It is a moment you share with others, inviting friends and family, and spending time together. You share good (very good) food, love and peaceful time together.
Iftar Party by *mjbeng shows well the togetherness feeling of this moment, even if these girls are too young to really fast the whole month. They were surely all laughing together, like the one in the background, but they have noticed the photographer and stay suddenly still, curious and serious." - words by Marie-Aude

A most fantastic cultural piece which gives us some insight to other worlds! Really nice gray scale to give a timeless effect! Excellent work and congratulations on the DD!

Great photo. Almost looks like it could have been taken in the 1920s or 30s..
