Advertisement Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 Hi Guest imported_stefan_r, Take a look here somewhere in the world. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
graham_mitchell Posted July 13, 2006 Share #2 Posted July 13, 2006 Very nice indeed. I like the mood and the composition, but I would definitely clone out the electric cables, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_stefan_r Posted July 13, 2006 Share #3 Posted July 13, 2006 I am definitely not photographing boring travel postcards, this one is already “very nice”, that’s the situation I found there, that life just then in that moment. nothing will be cloned here the cables even make the shot more interesting, without cable we would have that nice travel postcard. without that cables and lamps also there would be no room/depth/space.

andybarton Posted July 13, 2006 Share #4 Posted July 13, 2006 With the look on those children's faces, you'd not sell many postcards, cable or no-cable. There's a story here that I am not sure we really want to know - but probably should know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overgaard Posted July 13, 2006 Share #10 Posted July 13, 2006 It has a filmic tone to it that I like. When I see kids like that, in other countries, I often wonder what exactly is going on with them. What are they thinking? From my viewpoint days are just going by and it's often a quite hopeless situation with corrupt governments, civil wars and all. Anyway, it's a strong picture. Verys trong.

stuny Posted July 13, 2006 Share #13 Posted July 13, 2006 Stefan - Moodier than I'm used to seeing from you, but no less adept. Lovely subject, framing and tones. where is it? Did you engage the boy in conversation? If so, what did you learn? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_stefan_r Posted July 14, 2006 Share #14 Posted July 14, 2006 Hello Thorsten, this one is taken in India, "What are they thinking?" generally I had the impression that children in India are "happy" and that they get education, well that’s an impression from a tourist, scratching on the surface of Indian culture. thank you for your PDF file! Stuart, that was in Varanasi; had no chance to talk to him. in other situations I had the chance to talk to children, like here with these boys, I spend time with them on New Delhi’s train station, invited them for lunch, talked to them, they have been colleting empty plastic bottles, for selling them later. for us something unbelievable. but I didn’t had the impression that they are unhappy. difficult to measure or feel as stranger. regards Stefan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainer_p Posted July 14, 2006 Share #15 Posted July 14, 2006 ...photographing children, when it's well done like here, offers always great results as they do not cheat. the first photo is really good and you did well burning the person to the left that hard. looked to me like a person with a phone. Ilike the expressions of the boys in the second and you are with them, we can see this. if I would be picky I'd say the tiny triangle up left is somewhat disturbing but then again I usually hate pointing out things the photographer certainly noticed himself but choosed to show it for its strong parts. Or maybe was I tired of just being jealous of your images Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overgaard Posted July 14, 2006 Share #18 Posted July 14, 2006 I know those who have influence in India stress education very much as they know education is the only way to lift a country of 1 billion people. In the outer districts the parents may have their kids work to provide food for the afmily. But of that i'm not even sure. Other places in Asia I saw that the childrens school was the MOST important survival factor for most families. Well, also today I look at the picture and it's just a great shot. A great shot.
