Back Alley, a photo from Quezon, Southern Tagalog

Photographer's Note

My wife grabbed this shot on the doorstep of our friend's place in a squatter community in Manila. We felt privileged to be invited into a neighborhood we would otherwise not be granted access to.

Ciao John.
Bella foto con una composizione perfetta, bello il bambino che corre. Ottimo colpo d'occhio.
Ciao Renzo

Hello John

A very intense image from this area. I like the POV down the alley. Why would you otherwise not have access to this place?

Regards
Jimmy

Hi John. The black and white photo pleases me very well. It looks old, - and also authentic. It has journalistic quality. The running boy brings movement into the picture and makes it alive. Overall, well worth seeing. Best regards, Wolfgang.
