A child in Kenya wearing an interesting red dress. When I saw her up against a red door I thought the consistency of earthy red tones would be a good combination for a Kenyan portrait shot. I gave her a toy for saying thanks for the photo.

Hi Dave, nice capture in this portrait of this little girl. I like the sidewise stance she is taking, with that look of surprise. You can almost hear the gasp.

Thanks, John

Salut David,
Voilà un très beau portrait avec des couleurs très chaude. J'aime beaucoup. Amitié, Patty.

Hey David,

Thats a nice profile. Both from the technical, as well as the thematic perspective. The tones are nearly perfect (because seemingly nothing is), her clothes make a very nice detail, and she has a beautiful face, and an interesting expression on it. The background (wood) goes along with the picture nicely. In the end, your choice of the black frame is a wise choice, because it goes along very well, with the reds in the picture, and presents a good contrast from the tone of skin. A fine shot.

Enjoy.

A very beautiful portrait! She is a sweetie, and I'm sure she was delighted with the toy. Very nice expression. TFS

yeah...talk about portraits.

This one is a stunner. Perfect, original composition and profile shot. Color tones, levels, sharpness, background and tight crop all combine and come together to create a top notch and intriuging photo.

Great work
John

Hi David!
Again a fantastic shot! Wonderful portrait of this beautiful, kind-faced little girl. I like these brownish-reddish tones and the clarity of your photo. I think, she was happy with her new toy.
Thanks for sharing!
