Pretty mom, a photo from Kachin, North

Photographer's Note

Toi, la jolie maman,
Tu fais r瞚er tous les b嶵廥 du monde.
Tu fais chavirer les coeurs.
Tu es la fiert� de ta famille.
J'ai crois� ton regard dans ce village perdu o� je ne cherchais rien.
Il allait faire nuit et j'allais repartir.
Mais j'ai vu la lumi鋨e sur ton visage.
Alors je suis rest�.

****

You, the pretty mom,
You make dream all the babies of the world.
You make capsize the hearts.
You are the pride of your family.
I crossed your glance in this lost village where I did not seek anything.
It was going to grow dark and I was going to set out.
But I saw the light on your face.
Then I remained.

Hello Bertrand,
I see you were using the 50m/m 1.8. A lens that normally not impress me in build quality (i prefer the 1.4 version), but i have to admit that the picture looks good enough on TE size to re-consider my thoughts. The eyes are extremly sharp, maybe a bit to sharp. The colours are superb, nothing to pick on that. Just as the smile of the mother, wonderful, truly wonderful. The framing perhaps a bit tight to the right, but does not really bothers me, the overal impression is very good.
Regards, Henk

cbrman (21685) 2008-02-04 22:59

Hello Bertrand,

Le portrait est ici tr鋊 bien r嶧lis� car il est saisi � un moment d嶰isif ou la maman est tr鋊 naturelle ! Les couleurs de ces habits et de l'arri鋨e plan nous permet, de plus, de nous focaliser sur ces deux tr鋊 beaux visages !
Tr鋊 beau !
Quels sont les marques sur le visage de la m鋨e ? Des peintures ?

A+

yes Bertrand, you see a thousand faces like this each day in Burma. natural smiles and natural beauty. A fine double portrait, I like the soft skin tones and the fine details of her clothes and the bokeh. (The eyes look a bit too sharp, could that be)

TopGeo (38220) 2008-02-05 0:29

I look at your work and I realise that the portraits present a quality big even if it is reception with natural lighting! Irreproachable frame, diaphragm and time perfect! Attribution of lightings and shades balanced.
Bravo

Bonsoir, Bertrand,
I was tempted to look further into your gallery again, but this shot is SO nice. She is beautiful and has the most wonderful smile. Such a proud mama. The colors are divine and I like the composition with the two subjects at different heights. I love the steady gaze of that big old baby. Lord, it must be hard for a tiny little thing like her to haul that heifer around. He's a strapping big old boy. (or she) Beautiful portrait. Merci beaucoup and warm regards,
Shelly

belido (19934) 2008-02-08 6:13

Hi Bertrand,

Bonsoir Bertrand
Un cadrage serr� qui convient bien � ce sympathique double portrait. L'enfant semble presque inquiet, tandis que la m鋨e, au sourire rayonnant, est tout � fait � son aise. L'arri鋨e plan flout�, fat un peu penser � une peinture!
Amicalement
