I shoot this when I was walking on the street. I saw this old man bringing lot of stuff and trying to rest on some place.
I used HDR in post process and put little bit of color.
This shot was taken in Nepal, and the little girl in question was delightful, very happy was fascinated in the camera and didnt mind a bit that she was the centre of attention (one comment i received on flickr was tha\t the shot was too exploitative) and i got really lucky with the light, it was about 3pm (sun sets at 5pm). The reason i think the shot works so well, aside from the light, is the angle, i got down to her height, which makes all the difference on portraits of children in my experience, a lesson I learnt from this shot!!
Taken in Cape Town Aquarium with available light, during a vacation to South Africa. I´m South African but living in Brazil and photography is a great passion. More pics in:

the photo was taken at sundown, so the transaction from the light from the bottom left, and the darker corner in the upper right turned out to be just what the photo needed. although it is a great photo i feel the composition could of been improved.
i'm a 21 year old student who is currently studying abroad in Rome. This photo was taken out my apartment window on a rainy day.
