Honorable Mention Title: In the heat of the night The photograph "In the Heat of the Night" is an on the road idea, from an ancestral the nomadism of our origins to modern rootless existence . The first knows where he is going, cause he follows a route preserved in the memory of his ancestors, the second does not have a precise goal; he is in search of something more abstract or unreal, he is like a kite in the storm. Freedom only belongs to nomads, said Brel. But the fatigue of the body will come, the call to rest in the comfort or discomfort of the moment. And when they sleep, they always dream of an Earth, or a place where they could stop, for a moment or forever. "Nomadism is a freedom that the sedentary world cannot support, unless it is subject to it, as a condition of its renewal."
