Hello Dennis. An unusually expression-strong picture. One has really a bad feeling, if one sees these boys. The faces say everything. But: how you said already once, one should see the things optimistic and hope for improvements. Thank you for your journalistic photo. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello Dennis.
A great classic photo here. The alignment of the faces, with just the noses up evident, makes the composition. Also, the different expressions on each of the faces give a wonderful visual story to this sharp photograph.
Very well done,
Chris.

Hi Dennis,

B&W was definettly the right choice here. Nice timing to catch those beautifull curious eyes looking at the car window.

Cheers,

Hi Dennis,
it's a real pleasure to look at these 3 curious faces.
The faces contrast well with the white car behind.
I wish to see a smaller depth of field but maybe not possible with this camera.

hello Dennis,
this is charming and engaging. Perhaps that is also the word you are looking for? you were not so much engaged in distracting the boys but engaged in engaging them (if you see what I mean).

Hello Dennis: I totally missed this one and it's rather wonderful, not only to you control light and focus so well from inside your mini van but each one of those boys has a distinctly different expression. BW absolutely the right choice.
Goos stuff!

Hi Dennis, an interesting contrasts, secure in a nice car and outside the kids who obviously where not secure where they use to live, nice catch, too bad that you have this ugly minibus behind...

We would say diversionary activity......they were certainly diverted in this moment ;-)) ....a perfect title - there is so much to read in these three faces - a simple magic comes from this image Dennis.

There is a stronger crop to the top of the minibus I think - as the additional dark band at the top draws the eye to the overall pattern of the horizontal banding and away from the boys - do a screen scroll crop to see what i mean.

best wishes kev

Bonsoir Dennis,
Très belle image. Bien cadrée et bien nette. Le choix du noir et blanc est parfait. Quelle performance d'avoir réuni ces trois expressions: la méfiance, l'espoir et l'interrogation. L'Afrique quoi! Bravo!
