Siblings

A young Ecuadorian girl is carrying her baby brother on her back. Such a sight is not uncommon in South America, where kids as young as six or seven attend to their younger siblings needs while the parents work. This is a scan from a 35mm slide.

    For a scan it has very good color saturation.
    Did you have to touch up with Photoshop?
    I’ve scanned film photos before and I always have dust to get rid of.

    An excellent doco style candid Eyal. I really enjoy how you filled the frame with them, the composition couldn’t be better & the richly saturated colours add that little extra vibrancy and life to the image.

    Rodney, You’re right. Most of them smile and there is much that westerners can learn from such kids in areas of maturity and responsibility…

    I like your work (otherwise I would not leave comment, due time constraints).
    Below my reasons for it and my honest opinion.
    Please don’t feel de-motivated if some honest feedback is given.
    I always mean it in a positive way. And in all, it’s just my perception anyway.

    Impact (does it grab attention?): strong
    Composition (use of space, lines): superb filling of he whole frame
    Subject matter: wonderful
    Focal point: both kids faces, but dont compete. Good
    Style (story): superb
    Lighting: really good, no shadows
    Color balance: very pleasant
    General: a real good candid shot

  • Louise Cooke

    Such sweet expressions! And love the burst of colour and life in a mostly grey background…beautiful!

  • Stacey Dionne

    Stacey Dionne, 4 months ago

    This is an amazing image, and very touching! Definitely evokes emotion! Great lighting, color, facial expressions captured, etc…Great job! :) Thank you for sharing this! It’s amazing how different other “worlds” are from ours…in this country if they found a 6 yr old taking care of a “baby” on her/his own…we would be jailed! Kids would be seperated from family and put into a system that would most likely fail them! Makes you wonder how much better off we really are!
