| I took this photo at Fafraha orphanage just outside of Accra. This little girl wanted me to pick her up. The composition isn't great, but I love her expression, and especially the relfection in her eyes. |

Hi, welcome to TE! I wonder what you dislike about the composition: the way the child leans to you is clearly seen - that is of importance.
I once had a chance to visit several orphanages in Moscow. The children are supplied with everything except mother's love...
Though on this photo: http://www.liveinternet.ru/images/foto/699526/f_736418.jpg - they look quite happy: we brought them some pop-group, the girl is scrutinizing their post-card, if I remember right.
Hi welcome to TE I like this composition it tells the story.
If this is a composition you don't like I'd love to see one of your compositions that you do like
I look forward to seeing more of photos well done
Hi Leanne Marie! Welcome to TE. You have chosen a nice shot to start off with. The look in the kids eyes ... more than words. I hope you'll be able to do good things over there. Good luck, and keep sending these pictures.

Hi Leanne I like the eyes of this small girl because you can see inside all the sadness of the Africa for these little orphans (but they are happy) d you can see also the confidence towards you -

Thanks for sharing and welcome on TE (sorry for my english) -

Gaby
Hi Léanne J'aime les yeux de cette petite fille car tu peux voir à l'intérieur toute la tristesse de l'Afrique pour ces petits orphelins (mais ils sont heureux)et tu peux y voir aussi la confiance envers toi -
Splendide photo et composition

What a touching photo Leanne, quite sad really. You went over there to do what you could do, but you can leave the country when your time is up, not these little ones. I love how she is looking right into the camera with those beautiful dark eyes.
Thank you for sharing.
