Beautiful picture Tim!
Love the expressions that you’ve captured.
I wanted to ask you something. Some people are telling me that my blog no longer exists, I’ve tried to fix it because there seems to be something wrong. I think it’s already fixed, so if you can, could you please try to check it and let me know if it works for you? Thanks.
Pablo, thank you.
Yes it does seem to exist.
Awesome, this is what we experienced also! Thanks for sharing!
Marcus, thank you. These kids were so enthusiastic. This classroom had maybe 35 to 40 children. The 6th grade class had close to 60. It tells you something about the demand for education.
Thanks for this additional information, Tim! Education is everything!
You’re welcome and I agree.
Fantastic image, Tim. 😊
Thank you Jane. It was a group of kids who where wonderful. The school was sponsored by a nearby Lodge.
Amazing, to look into these eyes …That’s what we need to educate for!
Thank you for your kind words and for following my blog.
Yes II agree.
Please tell me some of these children are girls. And if so, what percentage? Lovely shot. You were privileged to be able to meet and photograph them.
Yes, some are but I don’t know the percentage. Only those that have some money seem to grow their hair. I saw one teacher who had long braided hair that was quite distinctive. I hope this link works. https://allentimphotos2.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/teacher-at-school-72dpi-10×7.jpg
Those are “extensions” in her hair. I just realized that the kids in the second section from the right seem to be wearing skirts.
