Photographer’s Note

Kids curious about our presence (there are not many "blancs" in Haiti, so we were indeed a curiosity) were playing around on the beach close to us, showing some pretty impressive acrobatic skills.

Hi Nana,
incredible shot! I like his shadow on the ground and that you made it in Black and White.

Great moment captured! The momevement in the sky and the shadow on the sand give a real special effect.

Wonderful sense of action here, it was important that you captured the shadow so as to bind the character to the ground (if that makes any sense). Well done indeed. (sorry no more smileys available today)

Hello again,
Another great B&W job, much underappreciated here really. Wish you had pointed the camera just bit upward to avoid the tightness on top, but that's very minor considering the difficulty of shooting the action. I liked your website by the way, and bookmarked it. It's uncluttered and useful, and will evolve to be more so in time. Ciao,
Hakan

Hi Nana!
Great capture, full of dynamism and so vivid! Your timing was just perfect. The b+w fits also very well.
Regards
Andreas
