Description When children sit down and start to dream,
they enter in a mysterious world;
you feel a little sad since you,
in that world,
are not more allowed to access to.

A land that much time ago also you knew,
in which you saw more colours and perceived shadings now become one-colour paints;
in which you could listen the silence,
and where everything had its smell.
Where the burning sun was the shadow of a big tree,
the rain an occasion to quench your thirst,
the snow the nicest gift.

Sometimes, when you feel alone,
you attempt to force the doors of this world,
but in vain.
Then you sit down,
being satisfied to look at it through the dreaming eyes of a child...

and you feel a little less sad.

Absolutely wonderful photo, the girl is so beautiful! I can sense the sadness and loneliness, but somehow the blue gives me some hope, it gives a happy mood to the photo. Wonderful wonderful job!

I definitely feel that the perspective could have been better.
But the DOF is awesome, and since you've attached such deep meanings with this photo, I see its beauty. This is amazing work indeed. Keep it up!

alefkandro In reply to Ashesh [2006-10-26 19:40:22 +0000 UTC]

How do you think the perspective should be?
(and what does it means DOF?)

Ashesh In reply to alefkandro [2006-10-29 09:48:43 +0000 UTC]

Well, you could try the same picture again for that. Try to take the camera to a lower height, somewhat, so that a part of the sky is visible, and preferably some clouds. What I'm talking about is a perspective that somewhat allows you a glimpse of the lower part of the chid's chin.
By the way, DOF refers to the "Depth Of Field", that is, how far the background is from the point of focus, and how well it has been 'blurred'.

Ah ok. To tell the truth this is a snapshot in which i didn't even look in the camera so i can tell i'm satisfied with the final result. Anyway i'll keep in mind your advices and try to get better photos.

its beautiful! i'm not a child hahah but then i've done the same thing. i love those boats. When i look at this picture, i can absolutely relate it to myself and it feels... so tranquille. Even in the middle of a market with lotsa ppl on the same boat...watching this little girl, everything feels very peaceful. Dont you think? Its a wonderful feeling.

Amazing picture

Not for nothing it's my favourite pic! I **adore** this child, she's my favourite cousin. One reason I miss Vietnam is because of her.
I took this pic in Nha Trang, we have spent the whole day on this boat and swam in the ocean with every kind of fish.
