Hi,
Cheer for this very teaching project, perhaps would be it good to put in link the organization which manages this project...

A photograph of school particularly successful with this well filled out table.

Good post ;)

This is a good shot I think. Looks like you have used a flash and I can't help but wonder what it would have been like with available light. I really like how you have her leaning into the frame Karolien. Good shot.

I can't recall passing over many pics from Africa, but now am glad that I did. Your photo is wonderful. It looks like the blackboard has seen a great number of lessons taught. Your idea for the picture is both simple and elegant. A picture to be very proud of!

Hi Karolien, very nice compo with amazing colors, this green contrasts so much onto the blackborard, very well done, this one deserves a nice frame I think...

Hello Karolien, I'm a sucker for "school" pics with writing and blackboards and this is an excellent example. I like the sharpness throughout and the sharp delineation between the board (monochrome) and the colorful green dress. Super job!

Karolien, an interesting frame that I like mainly because she has sense. The colors and the resolution are good, congratulations friend.

A greeting from Spain.

Excellent colours and sharpness.
Your composition is amazing.
A great work, Karolien!
A smile

Fantastische reisfoto, Karolien.
De stok, het afgesneden meisje met het kleurlijk groen op de zwart-wit achtergrond zijn geweldig.

When I found a scenic photo, I closed my eyes to enjoy.
At this type of photo, I open my eyes and stared at these people's pain...
May God bless them, and bless your work in sharing with us this journalistic shot and note.

Hi Karolien,

Nice framing on this little girl at school. I like her colorful tunic which contrasts with the blackboard.

Regards,
Stéphanie.
