This is a photograph that will grip you, you'll want to sit there with those two men and share their vision. Stay just a while and drink in the atmosphere and feel the presence of the spirits that survive from the legend. They are up there in the trees.
Madagascar, 1967

Two men gaze into the azure waters of Lake Tritiva near Antisirabe, Madagascar. The volcanic lake's waters are said to mysteriously rise during the dry season and fall during rainy season.
According to legend, two intertwined trees on a ridge above the lake contain the spirits of a young couple who leapt from a cliff to their deaths when they were refused permission to marry.
