[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Giving a look to old travels and photos I´ve found this photo and I´ve felt a conection with her for her seriousness and the clever regard. This photo was taken in Isla Amantani, and island of the Titikaka lake at the Peruvian side. A place 4000 meters above the sea level where the difficulties to breaze are worthy comparing with the experience to life with this people in their world so appart from the rest of the world.
About this portrait, I just wanted to say that I did my best with the shadows considering the the sun up there is particulary strong and unmercifull. I had the same problem with her sister that you can see here .
Thanks.

hola Miguel,
I just saw your latest post- wonderful portrait! I visited the same place years ago and the image of this beautiful girl brings back great memories. Thank you for sharing.
Have a good Holiday season and a Happy New year.
Sorry, to write in English- I am in a hurry.

hola Miguel, que mirada que has conseguido captar aca, me gusta. Efectivamente las sombras un poco marcadas, pero la composicion tiene mucho caracter. Y si se puede ver que hubo una coneccion muy fuerte. su mirada lo dice todo. Saludos, gabriel

Hola Miguel,
Lástima de las condiciones tan duras de luz, la pose y mirada son excelentes.
He colocado un WS con unos arreglos.
Salu2,
Oscar

Me gusta, la mirada es toda una historia y me sobrecoge la seriedad en la expresión de la niña.

Un abrazo ........ Paco

Hola.
Creo que Paco lo ha dicho todo: la cara de esta niña esconde toda una historia.
Ellos, los niños, o saben mentir. Y por eso son muy agradecidos con las fotografías: porque son capaces de expresar lo que otros no pueden.

Hay veces que es alegría, y en otras ocasiones son tristes historias las que se esconden detrás de sus perdidas miradas.

No hace falta decir que me ha gustado la foto.

Un saludo.

Btu you did very well, Miguel. It's too bad we can't see her eyes, but I giess they're coal black. Lovely pOV, and a sweet littel girl. A tough life so high up, and a sun that dries out everything. The skin of people living so high, is always very dry. Really lovely!

Not easy to do such portraits with the hard light! I had the same problem in Indonesia! Anayway, I like very much her face and the colors. Bravo and all the best for 2006!

Es un tipico portrait del altiplano andino.
Me gusto mucho la composicion que armaste.

abrazos
Alejandro
