Mothers Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

A toutes les mamans du monde, mais surtout aux plus démunies, à celles que la vie n’épargne guère, à celles qui manquent de tout et même de l’essentiel,… à celles qui donnent le sein à leur enfant tout en continuant à tendre la main vers les plus nantis : bonne fête des mamans !

To all the mothers of the world, but above all to those most unprovided, to those for whom life does not have much mercy, to those lacking everything, ... to those who nurse their child without stopping to hold out a begging hand towards more wealthy people : have a happy mother’s day

Hello again my dear Patrick

A impressive Photo.
Well balanced framework, color and composition are perfect as usual. Very significant for us to think about poverty and human right, but of course Good Job too !

Thanks for sharing and best regards,
Takero

the lights falls nicely on the baby's head and i can imagine that you were tempted to take this photo. However,judging by the mother's expression she was not too pleased to have you intrude in this intimate scene. And it is for this reason Patrick that I dont think this is up to your usual high quality. You know that I admire many of your shots so I hope that you dont mind my critique this time.
best regards, Elaine

Bonsoir Patrick
Tu as trouvé le rayon du lumière parfait pour amener notre regard vers cette mère et son enfant.
C'est magnifique.
Le point de vue en plongée est parfait.
Et le regard de la mère...
Bravo
Chris

Bonjour Patrick
I was about to say the thing which had been said by Elaine here. I have seen ladies (even in India) would take objection in their pictures being taken in such moments & justifiably so..they consider it an intrusion into their small personal moment between mother & child. Though the picture is fine technically & captures the spirit of motherhood, her look actually provides mixed feelings
Best Regards
Angshu

Salut Patrick.
Un très beau portrait, en montrant une image quotidienne de la vie en Inde.
Un grand bilan de lumières et d'ombres, précieuse la lumière qui influe sur le visage du bébé et l'expression de la mère.
Des saluts.
Luis.

Bonjour Patrick,
suite à votre message plein de sagesse dans le forum, je me suis égaré sur votre superbe galerie, n'étant pas présent ces derniers mois sur TE, je n'avais pas eu l'occasion de découvrir tous ces merveilles.
Celle-ci a particulièrement retenue mon attention par rapport à la situation et à ce rayon de lumière. Belle réussite.
A bientôt
Philippe
