Happiness is the Road, a photo from Extreme-North, North

Photographer's Note

......
Your mind will find a way to be unkind to you somehow
But all we really have is happening to us right now

HAPPINESS IS THE ROAD

And each baby..
A human sunrise
Each baby - a human sunrise..

Look around you
Feel your soul inside you
Look inside you
Feel the life course through you
The life that's giving In every thing that's living
The plants and the trees
The birds and the bees
And apes like you and me

HAPPINESS IS THE ROAD
.....
Marillion
extrait de l'Album " Hapinness is the Road" 2008
Paroles Steve Hogarth

The track is HERE

nb: look for the little baby ...!!!

Bonjour Vicent ,
Une superbe portrait de groupe , plein de couleurs et de sourires . Et aussi un cliché qui nous montre que les cases traditionnelles existent toujours en Afrique , apparemment .
Merci du partage .

Ciao Vincent,
beautiful photos of these happy children, i do not know why, and I've asked my self many times, because in countries where there is more poverty, children, in most cases are happier.
Well done!!!
Beautiful music that you have associated!!!
Cheers,
Valter

Bonsoir Vincent
Quel bel ensemble de couleurs, de sourires.... un vrai plaisir de voir ces bonnes bouilles
Pour te chipoter je crois que j'aurais cloné le petit bout de feuillage au centre tout en haut mais c'est vraiment un petit détail
Bien amicalement
Patrick

Bonjour Vincent
Je n'ai jamais vu des sourires plus sincères, plus vraies et plus expressifs que ceux des enfants, l'énergie est la même, là où tu te trouves!

J'apprécie votre visite, Vincent.
"Happiness is..." also a wink at those cheerful souls qui ne souffrent pas de leur pauvreté et posent sans embarras dans leurs plus beaux atours.
Chaleur humaine qui perce l'écran!
Amicalement.

Hello Vincent,
This is a slendid group of happy children. I like the way that they have arranged themselves making a diagonal composition. Wonderful exposure and colours -a very fine capture.

Bonsoir Vincent
Effectivement une splendide photo de groupe pleine de joie et de sourires. Les couleurs et la lumière sont magnifiques et j'adore comment on passe du sable doré vers le bleu pure du ciel via les vétements colorés des personnages.
Bravo

Hi Vincent!
Not so common to see photos of this country here!A very good portrait, very well framed and with so many happy faces!They are just great! Colours are really good and somehow the house in background is a little similar to the ones I've photographed in Portugal a few weeks ago!
