Smiling is the best thing in every moment of our life and seeing a smile on a child?s face is the best thing in the world! Very beautiful and happy faces, very good B/W and strong tones, only something due to the scanner I think. Bye Max

Wonderful children photo .....


Stefan Rohner   {K:4200} 2/4/2004
very good..


Julie Zitin   {K:419} 2/6/2004
This is so wonderful. It really gives off the feeling of kids being kids and it is such a natural image. I love how you composed it and how the one child is the only one looking at you...it's almost as if out of all the kids there, you and he clicked. I am really captivated by this...superb capture!


Araceli Lima   {K:177} 2/9/2004
Awsome B/W picture, not only because of the lovely smile, but because it's coming from a CHILD, which makes it very real !!! Coincidence or not, I've just uploaded a second picture of the brazilian indian girl, now smiling ! And I did mention in my "comment" how important to me it was to be a real smile !
Cangratulations, and I'll certainly keep on checking your work !!


Roger Cotgreave   {K:15892} 2/10/2004
beautiful shot Roy, what great faces..I'll have to catch up on your other work, regards roger


Cindi Czaja   {K:5314} 2/11/2004
Greetings Roy again -- gosh on the recent portfolio entries I must say it was hard to pick "just one" -- as they are all good! Anyhow, this delivers hard to my gut from the others on your Northern Zimbabwe series - emotion PURE and simple - right on! Let's not forget the child right of smiling girl too on the emotional factor! Tones wonderful - love highlights on faces - continue to do what you do - I like your "style" -- Kind Regards, Cindi


Marie-Elaine Doiron   {K:406} 2/13/2004
Thanks for your comments Roy!!
I really like this one. The framing and the timing are awesome.
I think you are a very good photographer. I find it very hard to take people in action, in there intimity.
You do it very well!
