[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
kribi is known for it's beaches in south cameroon...here you'll find many natives enjoying the water, fishing/playing in it...you'll also see many kids at work...this particular boy was helping his friend catch tiny fish in the water...she would catch it with a lacy material while he held the pot she dumped it into...

Clara bonsoir - superb view but too dark - the flash light will be welcome -
Have a nice week end
Thanks
Gaby

Hi Clara,

Not easy shot with the backlighting, as mentioned by Gabi, a fill-in could have help to get details of this boy.
I've done a quick WS to get the best of it avoiding as much as possible noise on the photo.
Keep doing.
Thanks, Alain -

Clara,

I like this photo, and the high contrast back lighting is nice. I wish the features on the little girl were just a little more visible, but still a nice shot.

Regards,
Herb

Yuo have a penchant for silhuettes, but here it provides a straightforward story, hides what you intended to hide, yet gives form to the visual narrative. Very artistic.

Hi Clara,

This subject help us to think about the poor condition many kids live in the subdeveloped economies. I like the way you framed the boy in the center and how he shows you his pot. It's quite dark though and the WS done by Alain enhanced all the boy's simple beauty.

Reards,

Flavia
