There's much to admire in Calcutta's famed Mallick Ghat flower market, but Danish photographer Ken Hermann focused on the dudes. It's easy to see why. The combination of stoic men draped in all manner of florals certainly does a number on traditional visions of masculinity.
加爾各答非常著名的Mallick Ghat市場里，琳瑯滿目的商品讓人流連忘返，但是丹麥攝影師肯·赫爾曼的關(guān)注點則在小販上。其中的原因很簡單。堅忍的男人和點綴了各式鮮花的服裝，這樣的搭配突顯了傳統(tǒng)的男性之美。

Sellers set up in the early hours of the morning every day, across from the Hooghly River, a tributary of the Ganges -- which also features heavily in Hermann's series.?
每天一大清早小販們就開始擺攤，地點在胡格利湖（恒河的一條支流）的對面——在赫爾曼的系列攝影中非常顯眼。
