Description


This image was taken a few minutes after the one I posted six days ago (see link below), in the village of Potou, near Louga, North-West Senegal. These two little girls are of the family of Sidi and Sala. This afternoon, there were so many children that I do not know whether they are daughters, grand-daughters or nieces of this couple. The knife took quicky a more quiet place, but I had the time to make this capture. Thanks to people who commented my last photography.

Cette photo fut prise à quelques minutes d’écart de celle que j’ai postée il y a six jours (voir lien ci-dessous), dans le village de Potou, près de Louga, au Nord-Ouest du Sénégal. Ces deux petites filles font partie de la famille de Sidi et de Sala. Cet après-midi, il y avait tellement d’enfants que j’ignore si ce sont des filles, des petites-filles ou des nièces de ce couple. Le couteau a très vite repris un emplacement plus rassurant, mais j’ai eu le temps de saisir cette scène. Merci à ceux qui ont commenté mon image précédente:

"An afternoon of happiness"




Techdata: Nikon D50 with 3.5-4.5/18-70 Pro ED at F65mm, no flash, 1/250s at f/4.5, ISO 400. Slight postwork in Photoshop CS3 Extended.

Je resterai toujours très émue et attendrie par l'innocence et la douceur de ces regards, maintenant ce couteau me fait "froid dans le dos"! Encore un magifique cliché-témoignage de ton séjour au Sénégal! Bon W.End Marie-Thérèse ainsi qu'à Edouard!

Elles sont vraiment belles et tu as su capter cette innocence et fraicheur dans leur regard (surtout la petite qui sourit derrière la grande) seul le couteau n'a pas sa place dans leurs si petites mains ...

A wonderful spontaneous portrait of these two girls. I really like the expression of the girl in the back; you can tell they are having a good time.

L'innoncence combinée à la dangerosité, et un certain goût de l'interdit, voilà une photo magnifique qui pour moi est la preuve que l'enfance n'est pas la période la plus innocente de la vie humaine, même si cela doit en choquer certains! Cela dit , c'est une très belle photo,expressive au possible que tu nous fais partager ici , Marie-Thérèse.

Quelle série ! Difficile d'ajouter quelque chose après les commentaires si appropriés de KarmaSong. Du vrai reportage digne des plus belles brochures sur l'Afrique. Les enfants quand on sait les prendre, deviennent des acteurs éminemment complices et d'un naturel époustouflant.

Impressive testimony about the danger that so many people in the Third World are living daily. This scene with our children would frighten us, but here clearly it is part of the ordinary life in this country.
