[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [French]
While going to deliver an oil press in a village of South Cameroon I met these children.

The palm oil is again run in Cameroon and constitutes a durable traditional and important income's source for the farmers of the South. It replaces little by little those of cacao and coffee who did not resist to the mondialisation.

Cette photo qui respire le naturel est très réussie, aucun des 4 enfants ne regarde l'objectif, c'est un point très positif.
Autre point intéressant, l'harmonie des couleurs, toutes dans les tons ocres, j'aime bien.
Bravo & bienvenu sur TE

Hi Quentin,
Very good picture. I like colours. Everything here is in the tone of rust. Warm tones of brown and yellow. Silver colour is in opposition, in contrast with a warm tones. Thank a lot and for your opinions too. Maki

Hi Quentin
WOW .. I can't believe that this photo has got so very few smilies so far ... It is awesome portrait man ...excellentlly composed ... these dudes look as if they are posing as models .... Sorry to question but did you tell them what to do or was it a random photo ... WOW again
cheers ... sarju
PS: The background of this photo, the color tones, the way all of them are standing .. everything adds up towards an A++++ shot ... only thing I could ask for more if I were a bit too anal would be a bit of more sharpness,

Qu'est-ce qu'ils sont mignons !
J'aime beaucoup les couleurs de cette photo, vêtements des enfants et murs.
A+
Marie
