Hi Ricardo.
You are right: the quality of the picture is not the best 'cause the scanned.
Anyway, I like very much.
The scene (with good depth), this daily life I mean, is really good. This is the kind of picture that is better when the times go by.
Why? Because here we see how is the people. And that's very interesting in one photo.

Nice work.

Regards.

Hi Ricardo
This is such a charming, rustic view! I love the smile on the woman's face and the way she is leading the child. Excellent depiction of daily life, where the landscape and its inhabitants seem to be living in harmony.

Hi Ricardo,
This is a most endearing shot, captured at the decisive moment. The expression on the faces of mother and child, the colour, and the balance and enhancement provided by the buffalo and the dog all come together in a memorable image. The karst is also well seen and appreciated. A most worthy contribution to TE, Ricardo.

Hi Ricardo,
Beautiful reportage of daily life in this unknown regions. Must be very special to cycle around here. An excellent way to look around I think. I’m glad you scanned it for us.

Olá Ricardo,
Nem sempre eu também consigo fazer um razoável scann de uma imagem e esta até nem está nada má. Faço sempre através da foto impressa. Gosto deste momento que capturou muito bem neste cenário que diz parecer irreal. De facto parece! Bonita atmosfera e um esplendido apanhado dos intervenientes. Parabéns e um abraço amigo,

Fernando

Bonjour mon ami Ricardo,
Très jolie scène d'une vie quotidienne. J'aime cette présentation pastorale représentant la vie de cette famille.
Peu importe la qualité de la photographie (bien que celle-ci soit satisfaisante), ce qui compte avant tout, c'est le regard porté sur cette très belle région.
Amitiés.
Philippe
P.S. : Merci pour la critique relative au château, j'étais certain que l'architecte que vous êtes serait intéressé par cette architecture massive !

Hi Ricardo,
Interesting shot, good composition and colour, nice landscape ... just a little detail, pity you have cropped the feet of the two people but it's, in fact, not verty important.

Hi Ricardo
A good daily life shot this, and one that is characteristic of the lives of many people around the world. I like the fact that you caught the mother looking at her children. The moment is brilliant and totally natural. The domesticated animals and fields give a good overall atmosphere to the shot as well. Good work.

hola ricardo, apesar de la definición no ser la mejor. esta es una imagen muy simpatica y bien elaborada. me encanta lo natural que se ve y la mirada amorosa de la mamá. creo q hay que seguir el ejemplo de fernando(galmeida) y comprarse el scanner que tiene, con el se consigue digitalizar a la perfeccion. un abrazo fuerte, gabriel

Great shot Ricardo, despite that it was scanned. Captured the moment nicely as the lady and child (and buffalo, and dog...) passing by. Well composed. I read about this area of China in Michael Palin's book Himalaya recently.

Ola Ricardo
I`m back ;)
Great composition of the people and animals, like one family. Nice background.
I only wonder if it wouldn`t be better if you didn`t cut them the legs?

Wow, you spent a week cycling around Yangshuo, Ricardo. I only spent a day, but loved very minute of it, so one day I will go back and do what you did. This is definietely one of my favourite places in China, and you have captured the rural atmosphere of the region well in this composition. Technical quality is passable given that its a scan, but DOF is good. Cheers . . . David

Hello Ricardo,
This is an interesting documentary!
Many typical details, like the water buffalo and the limestone rocks...
Good diagonal movement through the frame, attractive colours!
Greetings,

Ric,
A composição está uma beleza, paracendo que você conseguiu captar uma história em apenas uma gravura. Muito boa, arquiteto.

Abraço
