Hi Swiatek,
superb manage of the light... I'm really impressed by this photo. The low pov is excellent also.
Thanks for sharing this reality...

Hi Swiatek,

This is quite an efficient picture. The control of the light is excellent. The note would not be useful at all because the image talks by itself ... except for the website link. I visited your website and I want to point that it is worth a visit really. Impressive and talented photographic work.

always love low light and low pov shots, this is a gorgeous combination, capturing brilliantly the "sand dunes" on the floor with your trademark centered compo, the beautiful nikon colours and masterful metering!

awesome...just love your pictures...

Sand floor, gas lamp, late homework... And there is beauty...

great shot! well done!
all the best,dany

Very sensitive picture on your behalf. The vieawer is sitting on the ground just like the subject,. The interesting outline of the sand as an unlikely ground surface to work on is excellent. The light, being brighter by the face and fading out towards the sides still allows us to see the makeshift bed. A great scene of simplicity, contentment and hope...

Thank you,

Thomas

Swiatek
