Hi Cathrine,

A very touching shot. Although the neighborhood falling apart, there is still bits of life around that are trying to grow...you showed it very well in your photo.

Merhaba Catherine,
Your photos depicts the Sulukule life very well. I particularly like the candidness with the two girls paying no attention to the camera. Composition is well-crafted as usual, with the dichotomy between the children and the graffiti well-defined. Best,
Hakan

Bonjour Catherine,

Tres belle cette image. Par la composition qui place les enfants comme elements de depart a la decouverte de l environnement et par l effet miroir grace au grafiti sur le mur. Ensuite, il y a l aspect coloriste grace au bleu sur le mur et au rouge de la fillette. Et enfin cette etroite ruelle qui permet d imaginer quelque chose plus loin qui donne envi d en savoir plus.
Tous les elements sont la pour offrir une photo interessante,

Yves.

Bonjour Catherine,

needless to say, this is a splendid candid shot with a lot of photographic
expertise in it and as to the kids:

çiçekte tomurcuk, tarlada başak,
hepimizden daha yakın yaşamaya,
sayrılı, uykusuz ve yalınayak,
koşarak oynayarak büyüyecekler

regards,

tesup

Bonjour Catherine,
Quel beau contraste entre ces enfants souriants, aux vêtements très colorés et ce mur délabré.
Ta composition est vraiment excellente.
Bises. Marianne

Sevgili Catherine merhabalar;

garafiti ile süslenmiş yıkık dökük bir doku ve o rengarenk dokunun etrafındaki rengarenk elbiseleriyle o bütünlüğü tamamlayan çoçuklar çok hoş bir kare çok hoş bir kompoziyon olmuş..

ellerinize sağlık..

A heartwarming image from the depths of Sulukule... I like the colors and how you cleverly made use of the fiction boys on the wall. I further imagined another story, tried a "two boys for two girls" version. See the WS...
Cheers,
Deniz

Beautiful use of light and shadow here, Cath. The slightly ominous blackness behind the children contrasts with their everyday childlike body language, a language of play. They are unconcerned about the run-down conditions all around them.

It reminds me a little (at least superficially) of one of my old photos. Regards, Ken.

Hello Cath,
A wonderful dynamic photo showing that children is children no matter what kind of conditions they are in.
********
These people, of the region, are so talented in terms of rhythm and dance... I really love their steps in the 9/8 rhythm. They also call it "romen havasi" which I am sure you already know...even from this dance it is easy to infer that their life is so vivid, so dynamic, so living for the day. This is true I think for their life philosophy.
Best Regards,
D:)
