[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Just returned from a safari trip in Tanzania. However, the first image I will show is not with animals but with these two happy Masai kids.

Lovely capture! Motion and joy well frozen by your quick shutter, perfect metering and good depth of field.

If I'm really picky, I might criticise the clipped sandal at the bottom of the frame, but that's a minor point in this delightful portrait.

I like this picture very much. There is a lot a happiness. You should have included the mood catégory with this picture.

Congratulation!

Hi Pedro,I have seen this photo before,but where? I didn't remember.Wonderful.It is my favorite.TFS.Necla.

Machtige foto !
Prachtige kleuren en compositie.
De DOF is ook om van te snoepen : kind haarscherp met het contrast van die boom.

Hi Pedros!
Amazing moment that you have caught here, the light plays a good role to give it the most natural of colors and best for it I suppose...
The sharpness on the girl is wonderful and the blurry background gives it a lot of depth...very beautifully captured i must say but wait a minute where did the second kid go???? :O
Anyways nice shot and a delightful presentation!
Congrats and thanks for sharing :D
Cheers!

Hi Pedro. This would be suitable for a Nat Geographic article. The pure glee on that face is worth a million dollars. TFS. Murray.

This is National Geographic material. I do like this crop better than the orginal with two kids (although of course, both are great).
This photo proves that money does not buy happiness. TFS. K2
