Photographer’s Note

This is not a matter of cooling down but a matter of washing in a poor region of a poor country.

Note the well and the home made bucket

Your shot has reminded me my time in the refugee camps.

The bluish color of the late afternoon hightlighted by the sun last rays are just great. Very, very moody and lovely shot.

Very nice picture, I like the visible speed with which the water is coming down. The sun on it makes it really beautiful.

Wow! Great capture!
I like everything about it (perfect timing, quality), my only remark consider someone in the lef-up corner, I don't know - maybe it was possible not to include him (by standing a little bit to the left?). And there could be a little bit more place under the boy's feet.

Great photo with a beautiful effect of the spraying water under the soft sunlight. It would have been nicer without the background details on the top left corner though. But the most important quality of this picture is the feeling of loneliness of this child who has to take care of himself by whatever means available.

Not only a good compo here, nice effect from the almost into-the-light angle. But also very interesting TE daily life shot.
