[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [French]
Amauti : the traditional tunic that carries the young women in Nunavut. Our days, this dress is not any more in skin of seal but always comprises the hood in which the mothers place well with the heat their baby at the time of their displacement in the streets of the communities of the Canadian Arctic.

Really fine exposure and excellent capture of their faces. It is a very sweet photo. I wish the background could have been better and less distracting. This picture brought a smile to my face anyway. Good work Jean.

I love this shot..

Beautiful portraits mothers and kids.Very good colours, contrast and saturation.Interesting note. Well done.

The expressions you captured here are priceless. I like their what they're wearing and the explanation. Nice strong colors too. Well done.

I really enjoy this photo! The two women have such happy expressions while the babies are frowning. I also like the colors and how relaxed their expression and pose are (their clothes too!)

Very beautiful portrait of two mothers and kids. Good approaching angle, colors and nice details.

Well done!

Magnifique portrait de ces deux jeunes mères. Ces images ethno ne ressemblent en rien à ces clichés habituels ou l'on ne cherche qu'à nous montrer misère etc. Beau travail amicalement/jr

excellent portrait... le bonheur et la détente de tous les cadeaux

Bonjour Jean,

Un beau portrait de ces femmes du Nunavut et de leur enfant, la photo est claire et précise. Elle a une bonne composition et de belles couleurs. Bonne journée.
