angels of joy Photo

Photographer’s Note

the first thing you fall in love with in phillipens are the people but more expecially the children. they were so genuin and you almost instantly fell envious of their unlimited joy. i totally understood the theme in the book by david barre 'peter pan' the children overcame hardships with smiles because they were pure with clear thoughts that enabeled them superhuman abilities like flying! unlike the adults filled with complex emotions that lead to there own distruction turning themselves against themselves.

Hi Robert,
Those smiles are indeed angelic and you captured them so well. Majority of the Filipinos maybe deprived of the luxuries from the west but are wealthy of their warmth and hospitality. TFS

Hi Robert, indeed a very joyful image! It's always nice to see smiles on children's faces. Not much else to say, except that I agree with your note.

Hi Robert,
Beautiful color and fine details to this humorous beauty. The young ones seem to not have a care in the world. Loved your Peter Pan note.
Regards, Tom

Hi robert
The same I noticed in some poor countrys|(in economy part I mean that I belive in life satisfaction they are rich) the people are so warmhearted and happy and the smiles of them came out from their heart.
tfs your photo remind me same feelings with such kind of nice people.
interesting point that two girl in the sides pose different from other children.
