you never walk alone Photo

Photographer’s Note

Gambia - about 2 km from Serekunda beach -which is crowded with tourists - just walk along the coast and find the real Gambia so near !!! My son walking with his little african friend - the name is already out of our minds but the remembrance stays . For me this is real education ...
scan of old slide - bit upgrade contrast and stroke

nice colors and good capture. focus is good but a little soft. orange road shrinking off to infiinity due to perspective is nice

hi inn,

such a strong image with good increased contrast and sharp color scale. children look great - like copy & pasted there on purpose..
unfortunately agree with your note.

cheers,

Wow! Feel suddenly like speaking orange too. Very aesthetic and symbolic of links between races/people/cultures.

Hi, Inn.
A very good one.
I like the scene in the large road.
Beautiful colors too.
Best wishes. Grazyna.

I like your composition, Inn. The boys are almost centered, but the road leads the eye to one side, so it works. The red soil certainly suggests tropical Africa. It's nice how they're in step with each other, suggesting harmony.

The shot is a bit noisy in the sky, but it's hard to avoid that in these scans, at least for a non-expert like me.

Regards, Ken.

They walk together, their stride synchronized, they walk harmony into the earth. Great image, Inn. All is right with the world in this frame. For the duration of this photo, the whole world is okay. -Hugh (P.S. I just saw this photo featured on the TE home page today 1.44 p.m. NYC time!)
