[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A girl I met while strolling through the older part of Mopti city in central Mali. I don't remember if she asked to have her picture taken or if I asked her. In any case she posed willingly and without fear. That was 26 years ago, so this little girl is today probably married and the mother of several children. Let's hope she has a good life.

Hej Gert,
A very good picture and you also managed to get a good background for this portrait. The colour of the cloth she is wearing is contibuting a lot to the fine result.

Ciao Gert,
this photo has struck me for the naturalness of the smile of this young girl. A very beautiful and spontaneous portrait. You were 26 years ago also a good photographer. Compliments.
