About the Image(s)


I was visiting a village on a cloudy afternoon. A little girl, accompanied by her mother, was also walking around. She was extremely active and lively. When she noticed people taking pictures of her, she immediately played the part of a model, striking a variety of poses enthusiastically. Even when she sat down on this chair, she kept changing her expressions constantly. I captured this snapshot, and the atmosphere of the moment made me feel that she was making a wish for something.
I used my Vivi V40 mobile phone to take this picture. The post processing was done in PhotoShop.

You captured this young girl's wonderful character beautifully. And, it certainly does look like she's wishing for (or thinking deeply about) something. The large, empty room bothers me though and reminds me of a prison cell. Perhaps, if you crop the left portion of the image to eliminate the bench and sign, it might help.   Posted: 12/01/2025 19:18:37

I like the contrast between the girl's bright clothing and the rather austere room and I also like her expression. She is well positioned in the frame and the whole image portrays mystery. Why is she there? (We know that from your narrative but without that we would not know). My only comment would be to have positioned the bench a little further back so that the door frame was not cutting through her face. An observation is that there are some good textures on the walls to use as backgrounds in other images. A very enjoyable image.   Posted: 12/03/2025 16:42:38

This is a great photo. The contrast of her bright clothing with the more subdued background is very appealing and draws my eye to your subject. Robert is right that you have nice texture on the walls. You have good focus and exposure. The bright sign on the left is distracting for me because it is the brightest spot in your image, drawing my eye there. I would clone that out.   Posted: 12/05/2025 02:57:01
