Hi Tina, Once again a beautiful captured moment simply because you "READ THE LIGHT AND LOCATION PROPERLY" without fear! And click! "NO FLASH! BOUNCED OR OTHERWISE!" No fear to push and no fear in higher rating film or digital. The very true aspect of your photography as shown, is "What you see is what I shot!" It's life moments without manipulation or extremely little after! And that's what constantly lifts your photography above many others. That doesn't mean the others don't shoot great interesting images. They do, as Day after Day I say to myself... "Damn! I wish I shot that!" And quiet honestly mean it. But Tina? You observe these indigenous people in usually the worst light levels and contrasts anyone can imagine! HOWEVER! It never stops you and you go ahead and shoot it as you see it!You do your magic with your Leica's without fear! Well OK I bet sometimes with a little prayer to the "LIGHT GOD'S" ;-) We can all learn from your photography that the light doesn't have to be f. 16 and be there! Probably more like f1.0 at 1/4 sec! :-) Or close! :-) CLICK! Once again thanks for showing everyone they need not fear the lack of light, "JUST SHOOT IT AND MOVE ONTO THE NEXT EXPOSURE!" cheers, Dr. ted
