ciao paolo,
nothing special is going on on this image, and this is what exactly is good: the row of the boys with their sort of angry or exhausted grimases, and the lonely girl; by the way - its 8 of them plus her!
this is a cool photo!
ciao, j.

Hi Paolo,
So who is the Snow White here? This guy in white that's staring at the camera? ;)))
A lovely shot, look at the different expressions on their faces...

Hi Paolo,
A lovely shot indeed and I like the grouping of three and the prominent five (the sixth is negligible) as it is nature's beauty order. Their expressions are very interesting and the curve line formed by the heads is very graceful. Well done!! All the best.

Hi Paolo,
Something really makes that group look serious.
Some look cool and some really suspicious. Good contrasts and toning. Why so much wall?
Certaily different attitudes from this group of ten.

Tutti incazzati perchè avevano il sole negli occhi!!!
Il sepia mi fa venire in mente di certe foto che mi facevano, appunto, da bambina, e mi dicevano: sorridi!!! tieni aperti gli occhi!! e io non potevo, perché avevo il sole negli occhi.
Bravo Paolo che con il tuo lavoro di scanner ci mostri queste strane, particolari fotografie

Nice shot of the children Paolo, their 'posing' is perfect in this way with some looking here, some there. BW seems a good choice for the presentation.

Ciao Paolo,
Good work on capturing this "mob"... Dangerous work to photograph such a bunch. What we are ready to do for TE ;-)
Very well captured. My favorite part is the girl on the left, she seems to be left out of the group. And what an expression on her face.
Good work indeed,
Paul

Bella idea e immagine controversa Paolo, a parte il fatto che sono otto, nell'immaginario comune il ricordo della favola è tutto a colori, ed anche forti, tu invece ce li proponi in bianconero, lasciando da parte il calcio ;-) Comunque mi piace l'idea e la bella e ricca nota sui nomi dei nani in qussi tutte le lingue del mondo.
Ciao

Ciao Paolo,
Spectacular portrait of these curious group and funny note and title that fits just right. The diferent sizes, poses and expressions, are very well captured and the leader little one in left foreground is the best one. It could be a poster of a movie and the group also have some kind of mafia gang look, by the way they are positioned. The sepia works perfectly in here. Excellent work!
TFS,
Have a nice day,
Ricardo

Very funny note and I have already copied it in a text doc on my computer. Will make my friends laugh a bit, I think.
The picture is very interesting to me : so many different faces and expressions going through the faces and the black and white tones are just fitting perfectly to it.
The French dwarves names are : Prof (Doc), Grincheux (never happy guy), Dormeur (sleepy), Atchoum (Sneezy), Timide (the shy guy), Simplet (The unwise guy) and finally Joyeux (happy).

Hahah what a funny shot. Every child looks a little angry like it is dusty or too bright from the sun. Or are they mad because you made them pose for a photograph?? Great Photo
