Top portrait, good cropping. Its a fair few years sice I was in that region of the world, and your shots bring back many memories to me.

Superb close-up, Bob! She's good-looking and graceful but sad of eyes...

@Priamos: Hi Priamos, why they are not all in the portfolio... very simple, I keep forgetting to tick the portfolio box on upload! I'll try harder next time :-)!

So much stirs when I look at this photo. I see her sadness yet want to know if she ever gets to live childhood and has help caring for a blind father.
A lovely child. You captured the emotion.

Her face shows all the resonsability she has to carry at her young age... I fell like Craiger about her.

Others have expressed my views of this photo. The colorful necklace contrasts nicely with the serious face.
