I dont use to portrait kid, I dont use to vote photos of kids in TE since sometime ago, althought I have uploaded myself a few, who doesnt?
I do love photos of people when they are the expression of something else, when you can get a lecture out of it, maybe related with their personality or with the world they lived in... In this case I loved the punkie moment in the middle fo the desert, I mean, I cant stand the point "They are so innocent", because I think childhood is the rehersal of mature life, when you start to experience the good and the bad part of it. These kids are experiencing the refugee camp style of life, so no wonder that joking, they decided to pose like this in front of this european so technologicly equiped.
It was a fun walk and I will show some other moments.
Take care

No suelo hacer fotos de niños, incluso desde hace un tiempo no voto fotos de críos en TE, aunque yo mismo he puesto alguna aquí ¡Quién no!
Me gusta las fotos de gente cuando puedes extraer una lectura de ello, ya sea de la personalidad de quien sirve de modelo, o bien del mundo en el que habita... En este caso me gustó el punto punkie en medio del desierto, quiero decir, no soporto el cliché "Son tan inocentes", para mi la infancia no es más que el ensayo de la vida como mayor, con lo bueno y lo malo. Estos niños están disfrutando la "experiencia" campo de refugiados, asi que no me extraño que en broma, decidiran posar así ante el europeo tan tecnológicamente bien equipado que tenían delante.
Fue un paseo bonito del que enseñaré más momento.
A cuidarse todos.

Hola Miguel, I hope that all is well. This is a perfectly fine photo for TE, and in your notes I enjoyed the notion of "childhood is the rehearsal of mature life" which is a good perspective. The candid moment you captured is lively and precious, and for me the key ingredient to make this work as a whole is actually the presence and expression of the second girl at the left. Good shot.

Bonjour Miguel
I love this one ! la spontaneité est manifeste ici.
Moi qui fait ouvrir la bouche à mes patients toute la journée, j'ai rarement autant de malice au bout de la langue.
C'est une très très belle image
Bertrand

Everyone of us has to go through that period... This one or another...

Cool and charming production

Hola otra vez Miguel,

Estaba hojeando fotos, he visto ésta y he entrado a verla. En principio no he mirado de quien era y cuando he visto tu nombre no me ha extrañado por el original encuadre. Me gusta el primer plano ladeado de la niña y la otra chica expectante detrás. Como siempre, tus notas ayudan a situar la foto en su contexto.

Un saludo.
Fernando.

Hello Miguel. Fantastically, excellent, masterfully, - a photographic maximum performance. Very much amusing. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Ola Miguel,

I love that "punkie moment in the middle of the desert", but the picture wouldn't have the same effect without the girl on the left and her self-controlled stance. This obviously transcends the boring "oh my god they are so innocent" blabla...

Great work!

Benny

Definately a spontaneous action capture! Well done, its very good. I like that theres nothing to distract from the main subject... the blue sky is a simple background, and brings even more focus to the girl on the right.
Well done with this,
Dave

Espontaneidad....brutal! Realmente una foto de esas que gustan. Y mucho. Además, la inclinación le da un toque dinámico grande.

Un saludo y cuídate por allá!

Oh Miguel, excellent ! Great POV and framing, great naughty mood, splendid expressions, I like the colours too, I'll put it also in my 2nd favourites !
Congratulations, also for the great note,
Cath.

Candid and great shot Miguel. Your low POV makes this something else than just a kids image, also the way the girls are positioned on the frame, so close, just there, it's joyful, its full of life, and I liked you note very much too.

Las fotos de niños tienen siempre su toque de ingenuidad y naturalidad que es prácticamente imposible de conseguir con otro tipo de retratos, es sin duda, ya que mi hijo es mi musa en muchos sentidos, muy divertido y entretenido intentar capturar esa espontaneidad y belleza incondicional.

Un saludo.

who can resist to click on moments like this ?:D
they are lovely ..but this is not enough for a good picture ..but you manage to capture the expression in the best way possible
great frame
well done

Una foto excelente por muchas cosas.

Hola Miguel, ¿cómo va todo?

Muchos te lo han dicho ya y el mismo título viene a decirlo también: rezuma espontaneidad por todas partes y tiene una gran fuerza y belleza.

Hola Miguel,
Excellent, detail, color and light management. I think that Norbert nailed this one; the second girl makes the photo. Her expression seems to say that the behavior of her friend is all in good fun.
SAA, Pat

Bonjour Miguel!
Le commentaire permet de comprendre l'attitude de ces deux fillettes, agressif et enjoué à la fois. La composition de l'image rend bien la spontanéité du moment. Peut-être une toute petite réserve sur l'ombre (du photographe?)...
Bonne journée!
Eva

Only fun here. Pure fun. And that's what I enjoy.
The title was probably the best choice to describe the moment.
Very well seen and done.

Hola Miguel, i looove this one ... As days and time passes i become even more interested and attracted by that kind of shot, by spontaneity, yesterday i met once again Daniel Barreto (rbcy1974) and he gave me a clinic on "spontaneity", i learnt a lot seeing him in a shooting session, no fear, close to people, this is how you can get close to souls ... and here you did a terrific job.
I love it

I think it's great that children are children no matter where they live. Wonder composition and POV.

Pues sí! Pura espontaneidad, la suya y la tuya de haberla pillado así. Muy divertida y llena de vida. Buena composición con las dos ni´nas y con la ligera inclinación de la camara, con lo que consigues dar un buen dinamismo al retrato.

Me encanta esta serie!
