  Working the sugar fields in the state of Veracruz, in Mexico.

  

  Notice the different effect produced by cropping. In the cropped photo one sees an agricultural worker. I wanted to see his face. I wanted to see him bending over. Some of that was my searching for different forms that would express the duration and the exhaustion of the work. But then I linked on the larger version. The larger version captures what I was looking for. It situates the worker in the isolation of his work, an alienating factor. It portrays him as small and powerless against the huge field of corn. In this large version some of the corn looms over his head. The horizon and the mountain give a sense of the vastness of the field and the enormity of the work.
