Dans le fleuve Gambie, ces enfants jouaient, riaient, s amusaient, la chaleur etait insoutenable et ils etaient mieux que moi..

In the Gambia river, these children played, laughed, heat was insupportable and they was better than me.

Bonjour Francine,
nous voici sur la même page...
dis donc si tu avais été avec eux dans l'eau afin de t'y rafraichir, tu n'aurais pas pu faire cette photo...C'est quoi derrière le deuxième gamin, un rocher ou un gamin qui plonge...
j'aime beaucoup tes B&W - bonne journée francine
amitiés
daniel

Salut Francine, un joli trio qui nous mène bien au fond de la photo, j'aime bien l'expression du premier et son reflet dans l'eau avec la petite vague, chouette...

Bonjour Francine,
Très belle capture ! On imagine bien le mouvement et la chaleur !
Le N&B fonctionne bien !
Merci pour le partage,

Hi Francine

Looking at this photo reminds me what happiness means. It is not what you have, it is by what you live with. Cheerful faces makes for a happy photo. Well done again for a fine image.

Can't pint-point it, but I perceive this photo as a kind of a drama, performed in front of my eyes out there, on the stage of Gambia River.
And that top of the head only visible above the surface - adds some shiver to my feelings.

Nevertheless... Interesting photo.

Salut, Francine.
J'ai envie de rire à cause de...la "troisième tête" qui surgit de l'eau et que l'on ne voit pas vraiment...superbe instantanée du fleuve, juste dommage que la dernière tête soit un peu coupée.

Hi Dear Francine.

Look ....you are giving the cool feel to all lovely people in that heat lands....
Lovely and powerfull is the little boy's action, and the choice of B/W feels the cool... What is the output of the colour version, dear friend..?

I wonder why "isa" didn't see this till now.. she would have loved to jump in that cool waters ........ :)

SALUTES, dear Francine.

Interesting shot. MAybe the only weakness is how the left side is cropped. I like all 3 faces so I would love to see more space on that side...though you could crop him out too. But he does a great job of balancing the compo so in the end its wise to leave as is. Very sweet shot. And very playful.

Hello dear Francine, my dear friend '
Still sailing on the blue waters of the Mediterranean, this is one of the few days, where I could get again axcess to internet.
And noticed thatI had missed this great shot; which is a great evidence of, how important "water" is getting for our world !
Very good b&w capture, very nice composed.

Hi Francine.

Very good photo. The black and white is a very good choice and I love how appear everyone of these boys from the water. Their faces are great.

It looks a bit tilt, but I don't mind.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Francine, i like a lot the natural expressions here and the joy of the boys..
well done!
ciao!
Valeria
