Photographer’s Note

Isle de Mozambique is one of the most amazing places I have been in the world. The old portuguese architecure is just beautiful and so photogenic. The children are terrific and I met these two little girls playing in the street. I love the attitude the girls are showing off.

I've been playing with the black and white and colors a bit. Maybe its just a gimmic, but I really like the look of picking out a bright color and highlighting it in the picture

Hi Paul, I don't think that playing with B&W and highlighting those colours is a gimmic....I believe that it works very well in this photo. And, yes, children in southern Africa are wonderful, and it sure looks like these girls are enjoying the attention. Nicely done.

future models, paul?
i like the way you did leaving the bright color and highlighting it, enhancing the appeal! i did one or two of this kind--it robbed me of my time tho, but....
