Photographer’s Note

Just cam back from Rwanda and Kenya for work. The woman pictured had an amazing quite spirit. Her hands and stare reflect years of struggle. I took so many photos of her...

Another excellent shot. Your use of empty space really adds to the contemplative mood of the old lady. I feel a little sharpening would have helped though.

Hi Joop,
I like the tones, I like this woman's attitude, this is a beautiful picture.
My only regret is that you cut his head, Perhaps Id have let more into the frame.
Overall a very nice picture.
Best wishes for 2007,
JB.

Thx for giving me the welcome to TE!

This photo has really nice composition.
(Think the shape of her head is quite unusual,but fits perfectly)Love the color,and the contrast between the subject in focus and far.

Love to see more Rwanda fotos, I sponsored 2 kids there through world vision, but I've never seen what kind of life they live over there.So, thx for sharing the fotos with us!
