Waste Pickers in Landfill 📷 Monomad Challenge

A landfill is a place I frequently visit to capture photographs that, in my view, possess a unique appeal. There, one finds cattle, storks, and waste pickers—all vying for the fresh garbage that is transported daily from our city and dumped in this area.
I arrived late this morning; the sun was already climbing higher, yet the waste pickers continued their search for various discarded items. The cattle and storks, not wanting to be left behind, joined the fray across the site. I took the opportunity to snap a few images for this edition of Monomad.
In this Monomad Challenge contest, I want to invite my friends to see some of Black and White photos caught by my camera; "Waste Pickers", the pictures presented to my friends in Black and white Community 😉

Thank you for support @qurator and big thank to @brumest as usual recommeded it to community. 🙏🏽
En mi experiencia el blanco y negro le da otra dimensión a ese tipo de escenas, como en la foto donde las cigüeñas y el ganado esperan junto a los recolectores. Me quedó dando vueltas la convivencia de todos compitiendo por la misma basura fresca que llega cada día. ¿Las fotos son de esta misma mañana o juntaste varias visitas al vertedero?
Terima kasih sudah memberikan masukan yang cukup menginspirasi @jhelbich. Saya sering menghabiskan waktu bersama pemulung disini, namun photo-photo ini saya ambil pada pertemuan kami kemarin pagi, photo saya ambil pada pukul 09.00 pagi waktu Indonesia.
