[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Just another African image. I was impressed by that mother and her child, sleeping on the ground, drying some laundry near by. Another impressing aspect was that all those persons were finding the image so natural, but on the other hand, what could they do.
The angle for this photo was not the best, my hotel room was somewhere up and lateral , so it was difficult to get the perfect shot .
Thank you all for opening.

Hi, friend!
It is very interesting photo from Angola. i never been in Angola. It must be interesting country. Photo is very oryginal. Good quality, interesting view.

I like your angle and framing. Well done; I think I like the best is the offset of not only setting but color of the movie poster; very interesting and abit depressing. I think your blacks are a little dark; only a suggestion
thanks,
Michael

The people at the bottom of the image seem to know better. Why stand under the heat when you can lay down? Nice picture and very interesting scene. The cultural differences are well marked in this picture. Well composed and with a good point of view. Thanks Vasile.

Hi Vasile,
This scene is quite interesting. First, how the hell those stools have arrived to the top of those shelters? Looks like people just threw and store things there. Interesting also to see the attitude of the people waiting for the bus: some stay stand up, others sit on the pavement, and those a little bit lazier, lie down completely on the floor. Incredible!
I like the framing and DOF. Great documentary. Good job!
Andre
