Feminine conspiracy, a photo from Bangui, West

Photographer's Note

Young girls at the fountain.

This was the place where the daily life could be watched. Men, women, yougn, old, everyone came to cool their body and refresh themselves, under the cold water faucet.

WOW...excallent. The compo, very simple, but works SO well here. Colors are outstanding and the scene itself is rather interesting as well. I like how everyone has their back turned, with only one kid looking at us. Just an amazing shot. Well done.

Superbe Yves !
J'aime toutes ces petites filles avec des tenues différentes !
Les couleurs "terres" sont superbes, j'aime la coupe de cheveux de la fille que l'on voit en face.
Le titre m'a bien fait rire.
Excellent, bien vu

Salut Yves,
J'aime beaucoup cette photo, tres intimiste en laissant un peu de contexte.
La lumiere est belle avec ces couleurs ocres.
C'est marrant de voir ces filletes en train de chuchoter entre elles!
ca vit!

A most excellent image. I particularly like the fact that only one little girl is looking at the lens! Nice composition too!

Fantastic composition and timing. Everything was done just right, the sharpening, levels, just great. Well seen and well done.

It looks like "daily life" was watching you, too, Yves! Very nice--some things, like feminine conspiracy, are the same around the world. An excellent composition with a beautiful mix of horizontals and verticals.

I hope this conspiracy is not against you...
This girl behind is looking at you strangely.
Very good daily life picture, well composed and the title allow us to be a little bit mysogin!

Absolument excellente !
J'aime tout: le sujet, leur attitude, le regard de la jeune fille de face, le cadrage, les couleurs, les lignes horzontales.
Cette photo est fantastique !
Bravo !
Sophie

Bonjour Yves. Charmante composition, sujet original. J'aime en particulier le fait que tu as place les filles sur une espece de scene elevee, et j'aime aussi la fille qui seule te regarde alors que les autres ont toutes le dos tourne. Super! Amicalement, Francis

your photo made me smile. I loved it that only one of the girls noticed you. it looks like she and you have some kind of conspiricy between you, that the other girls shouldn't know about...

richtersl (3546) 2005-10-18 12:26

Oh this is just precious! I love how the one girl is looking at you while the rest are oblivious. Well seen!!!

Bonjour Yves,

Une belle photo pleine de vie locale, beau cadrage. Et l'intérêt vient sans doute du fait que toutes les fillettes ont le dos tourné, sauf une qui fixe l'objectif... Bien joué !
