Nice capture. The angle of the shot of this girl's facial is great. The capture of the light is great. The clarity is great. The presentation is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall.

Charlotte, this is an amazing portrait of this beautiful young girl. You have captured her vivacious zeal. Her hair is expected and her smile is captivating and reveals her kindness. This is a wonderful choice for the portrait contest and the best of luck to you. Oh and enjoy your conch shell. Ray

She is a beautiful girl indeed! She has such a vivacious expression! , I can see the grains of sand on her face! I love her hair, naturally bleached by the sun and blown by the wind!
Well photographed with good focus, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors snd tones appear natural I love her happy smile!
Well composed and presented!

Comment from Monica Morrell


What a lovely story, what dreams are made of. A free wild care free life with land wind and sea. A simple life but difficult with no modern amenities but what are modern amenities, more pressure, more chaos, more responsibilities. This young girl looks happy and carefree. Peaceful and calm.
Your photo of her is beautifully focused. Excellent detail. Thank you for sharing her story and image.

    Thank you Monica, that is one of the things that really struck me in Madagascar with all the children I met, despite dire poverty, they all seemed so happy with their lot.
