Woah, such warm colours! Interesting street scene from Dakar, with an unusual compo given the woman on the left.
I like the sepia one just as equally, I must say. It has a completely different effect.
Never short of pics from your travels!

Hello Sylvie.
Intersting presentation of street life in Senegal. Good colors and detalis. The sky in the backgrounfd is a little o/e. Workshop looks great iven better I will say.
Compliments.

Hello Sylvie,

I really like this photo its tell the story of how far behind time they are. They need help, Theirs early 90 mabe high 80s cars in the back ground The horse and home made trailer, I like the story thaT you have told here, It let people know how
lucky they are and how people need to help each other more. well done

hi sylvie,
something is wrong with the colors. saturation is too high I think. you have details on the vehicle with the horse but the white on the picture has no details. if you are using photoshop there is an option for shadows and highlights. this option may help to fight the loss of details. (ph CS2 and may be earlier versions .. )
regards frans

hi Sylvie,

I like both, the sepia is like "an old photo from years ago" and the coloured one is special with the strange light. It is indeed not easy to take pictures at full day, the light is strong and even when you use polarisationfilter, it stays hard. But it doesn't botter me because i have the same problems when i travel. It is what it is ... and PP is only good to stroke and work away the dirtpoints on the photo.
see you, inn :))

coucou sylvie
tres jolie photo, mais peut etre un peu blanche, bonne malgré tout
félicitations, bon dimanche
edith
