Children's Laughter Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was taken in a Anhui province in a small town called Shexian. The entire region is known for its wonderful white washed architecture, ancestoral homes, and ceremonial arches. Also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was also filmed in this region. It is quite lovely!

This foursome was outside their school house causing mischief. You may recognize the girl in thes stripe top from an earlier post.

Only children seem to express that amount of happiness...amused by so little - I envy their joy. You made good use of the opportunity and I like the way you have shot them full framed as its nice to see their clothing, scars and cute little shoes and socks...however, I think a close up of all their faces would have been awesome!

it is incredible, but those laughs almost seem fake or forced to me... strange impression! what is this girl doing? acting like a macho man?? haha! maybe that what made them laugh so hard!
