Awesome documentation of the daily life of people, I used to see this kind of thing when I was growing up in the Philippines. Good pov and nice deetails. It's a little bit over exposed otherwise well done, tfs.

Hello Michael.
A vivid scene of daily life in the city, women in the foreground are very good color and contrast, the background I think you should have compensated a bit with PS. in any case is very interesting to see these places as different to our environment.
Happy start to the week.
Best regards.
Luis.

another nice scene of the street and daily life in this far country. I liked these details. unfortunately to make the elements in the foreground visible it was necessary to make the backgorund overxposed. anyway a nice job.

Hello Miguel.

I might have tried some burning and dodging with this shot to get more density in the highlights, especially in the bg, which is slightly oe. But a fine daily life scene from Nepal with good shadow detail and excellent sharpness. There is a slight tilt to the right. Tfs!

Bonjour Miguel,
"Street hair-style" is a perfect title, funny but adequate.
Nice taken the moment. There is however much backlight effect on image, could avoid this easily.

Hi Gueguel,

This girl's hair need to be cut short. So it would be washed often and easily.

Hi Miguel
A funny capture, right on the street with difficult light intensity differences but well exposed.
I may have rotated to fit the vertical wall on the right and maybe cropped the already truncated fellow there!
Greetings
Laurent

Hello Miguel,
Wonderful daily life shot. Nice to see the real life. the mother is so concentrated on the lady. And it is amazing that they are outside the road.

Hello Miguel,
I like the way you captured this casual and intimate scene from a seemingly close point of view without disturbing the people included in your picture. You have integrated them superbly in a broad and interesting context which we may observe quite easily thanks to the great clarity, depth and lighting you have achieved. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania

Hello Miguel
Interesting that the girls have sat down in a common staircase for the hair arrangement. I think the lady is making a hair braid as I often have noticed everywhere. Both the girls are too young and their lifes in this place certainly would amaze usAs you have visted Nepal understand well what his land has of natural beauty. Warm regards. Tomi
