Ciao Teresat,


Gosto do B&W aqui, eles correspondem muito bem ao assunto!
A cena está bem enquadrada com pino afiado nos detalhes ...
Dinamica nas linhas principais da composição, bom trabalho!
A garota me parece levemente triste e isolada!
Ou talvez, só observando.

Saudações,

Sergio

Hi Teresa,

My journey from the nostalgic moods to the realistic assessment of childhood dreams begins here...

Yesterday's noises turn todays golden dreams, isn't it, Teresa?

Looking back,the simplest THOUGHT we all will have is.. when does our life reach the golden days of childhood again? ......

This image has the power that inspires many..
This is a moment to think too..

Thank you for the thought.

Bom dia my dear Teresa,

well, thanks for including me in the girl's play. :) I am more than happy to participate. :) Miss you guys terribly *I know, I know, I still have to write my e-mail to you, I am so slow and busy lately*

The thing that I like about poetry and photos the most is...they are like small time portals and when you look at them, read them, they take you on a certain place and time and you can experience certain emotions and memories over and over again. This image reminds me of my childhood (I was always that strange kid living in her own 'strange' world...I still am that kid sometimes and I love it, because it makes me complete).

Life is strange circle...we are born then we die, life is what happenes in between, if we are able to recognize it. Childhood can be the best part of our lives, time of innocence, when things are easy and world seems simple. Then we grow up and see the reality...nothing is easy. But the trick to survive in this life is to keep the child in you alive...sooner or later we all return to our childhood, because we have to, because it makes sense.

You are right...life is great adventure and we need the right people to share it with. I am happy to know you - my girls and to share the child in me with you.

Um grande abraço,

Stasa

ciao Teresa..
what a lovely mood you was able to create.. it's taken directly from the past.. and use of b&w increases this sensation of old looking! excellent with the poem.. beautiful pose and expression captured! great dedication..
my compliments
ciao Marco

PS i'm sure when we are adult.. we continue to play as we was in our childhood.. other lenguages.. other behaviours.. but the same attitude.. feelings! ;))

Prague ranks high on my list of places to go - and equally high on the list of places I never seem to find the time to visit...
then you go all the way to Prague and find this little girl for me =)
thank you for this beautiful photo and for the note - I know why you dedicated this girl to me =)
yes, all begins when we are very young. then we grow up and grow old, but what we were, we will be.
it's a poetic and lyrical image. it's the moment when we stop to think and look around and check if who we love is still there.
boa noite Teresa =)

Hello, Teresa -
This is a very special image - I love the way the slide comes down from the upper right and leads the eye swooping through the frame and right to the little girl. Her posture and the profile of her face are beautiful. Amazing range of tones with the very dark background and the brightly lit (but not OE) girl. Wonderful!

I Look at this little girl and yes for a sec, a flash, memories and lots of memories started singing a nice song in my mind, how beautiful when a picture can bring you back in time.. adorable... B/W I dont think it can be any better, the right choice indeed, the perfect moment, that sweet glance, the beginning of an adventure, and a lot to say and dream and all that you captured my dear Teresa in one shot, in a great superb sweet presentation... and you just made me smile:)

thank you and have a great day.... Um grande abraço

Bom dia Teresa,

Reflexões (e incompreensões) de uma menina sobre a "realidade" da vida adulta, ou reflexões de uma mulher (você) a respeito dos sonhos (tantos!) da própria infância.

Belíssimo trabalho!

Obrigado,

Good morning Teresa,
A fine portrait. The diagonal created by the slide is attractive, and the young girl sitting at the edge looks pensive with a hint of smile. The b&w rendition is effective as there is good contrast and tone. Best regards...

Ciao Teresat!

I'm home only temporarily, becuse I'm spending my holidays on board of my sailing boat... so I checked my account by chance...
Christina Rossetti was one of my favourite poet, If I don't remember wrong one of her poem was:
"In winter I get up at night
and dress by yellow candle light.
In summer, quite the other way
I have to go to bed by day.
....
Do you know it?
your photo is so cute!
I love that little girl and her look. The strong contrast white/black makes it so emotional.
Have a wonderful summer vacation,
I hope to find you again in October (or mabe earlier...)
Un abbraccio!
Donato

Hi Teresat,
I don't like to see a child in a b/w environment. Is a bit negative, while children are positive.
Indeed a lot of mood in this photo. Great note with it.
TFS.

Hi Teresat,

Interesting portrait, B&W created somehow a different mood.
The pinpoint lighting of the girl draws the viewer easily
on the subject. Well balanced composition, very nice mood and lighting.

You have created a lovely mood by using b/w.
A lovely choice of poem too,quite poignant.

A linha de força emprestada pelo escorrega aponta e dirige o nosso olhar para aquele que é o motivo principal da composição. A luz sublinha de igual modo este elemento principal!
Acho que está fenomenal e respira poesia!
Agora vem a parte difícil porque estou com dificuldade em expressar-me de forma coerente, mas cá vai…
O poema é belíssimo, mas… (não é uma critica… é um desabafo!) estou confuso porque não me consigo descolar do princípio de que a candura de uma criança se projecta sempre no futuro!

Hi Teresa,
Very happy to be here with you after a month of absence!
What I see is a "vrai bonheur"!
The subject and the composition are timeless and your B&W conversion adds a lot of conotative memories experiments. Each child has had in his childhood a moment of loneliness for printed some interesting meetings or experiements in his thoughts.
I like much the beautiful mouvement you give with the use of the seesaw line.
My compliments! Annie
