Photographer’s Note
This boy is building a tower from the material available and because this is a place where you can eat and drink (usually called a 'snack'in Curacao) empty bottles of beer form a logical building stuff.
I still think it is strange that countries like the Netherlands Antilles are here not seperately mentioned. The islands are not a part of the Netherlands and Europe but form with the Netherlands three different states under one crown: The Netherland, The Netherlands Antilles and Aruba.

Hello Gerrit,
A splendid and humorous daily life shot of this lad amusing himself with whatever is to hand. What makes it for me though is the dog silently watching and apparently taking it all in. Very good light and colours and superb sharpness. Made by day!

Hi Gerrit,
Beautiful portrait of the boy, so focused on their activity. Kids create toys, sometimes better than those sold in stores. I like the dog which seems to observe the scene. Great colors, light and good details.

Hello Gerrit
A good daily life scene with excellent shadow details & sharpness. The dog at left adds a slightly humourous touch. The diagonal kerb adds dynamism. Tfs!

Hi Gerrit!
Original way to spend time!I like the way you framed the boy and the dog. A very good daily scene! Only when I read your note I understood that it had been taken in Curacao. Did you like it?
