O pessoal acha que eu sou muito duro. É que quando tem algo que eu acho "errado" não deixo para trás. Nas suas está duro de achar, a única coisa que não gosto é que vc só escreve em inglês (e eu sou péssimo) mas nem ligue é sua opção e minha deficiência.
Ótimo retrato.

Black and White must go together

This excellent shot reminded me of great song by Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney, so I had to write down some lyrics :)
You did excellent job here! Composition is good (shouldn't crop the ear on the right) with great DOF. Cap moved to the left on left guy is great detail. I only wish their eyes were sharper, everything else is perfect! B&W comes naturally, of course :)

Great job done, TFS!
Regards

Robert

Hi Carmem, it made me think of the 'United Colors' ad campaign.

Great shot, the kids look so happy.

Have a great trip and come back with plenty of pics...

This radiates joy and happiness. Cute to see their two big smiles. A little soft on focus, or perhaps the filter did that. Hope you enjoy your week away. Bring back some fabulous shots Carmem with your 5700.

This is such a wonderful picture, it really brings out the best feelings. I agree with Robert, the moment I saw it I thought of "Ebony and Ivory"...so warm and so humane.
Congratulations Carmem!

Nice shot, Carmen! Good choice of B&W. I like how the 2 heads merge in the middle to make only one. Very nice smile on these boys! Excellent!

Wonderful portrait of these two boys, Carmem. You have captured dazzling smiles on them and the B&W works really well. I really like the close crop and how their heads come together in the middle of the picture. Well done!

Oi Carmen,

AO olhar para esta foto fez-me lembrar a publicidade da Beneton que vemos espalhada na rua.
O preto e branco ficou excelente assim como a composição.Um título muito bom também seria"todos diferentes todos iguais".
Fica bem,
Fernando

Hi Carmen, great double portrait... i really like this one! Friendship, tolerance! this is what comes to my mind.

Mario

Well taken! Full of joy and natural to the max! Great Portrait! Have a good trip! :o)

Gostei desse tema de Retratos de criancas do Brasil... caiu como uma luva, e ficou muito bonita :)

Lá vai ela sumir novamente... !!! He... He...
É sempre um prazer quando você coloca suas fotos... a gente aprende e se delicia.
Uma composição além de excelente é bem "alegre", crianças simpáticas e alegres.
Parabéns
Obrigado
Reynaldo

Oi Carmem!
Realmente ficou muito bom esse retrato, o enquadramento fechado no rosto das crianças destacando seus sorrisos, além do que a informação passada, simbolizando uma "união" de raças, um garoto branco e um negro, juntos e sorrindo, sem nenhum preconceito. A pureza das crianças, que faz falta em muitas pessoas.
Parabéns!
David

Hi Carmen, you do have ability for portraits, I enjoy them very much. I like this two little kids, their gestures are very cute. Also I like the sepia and grain effect. Saludes, Iris
