- Young scholar -, a photo from Mopti, South

Photographer's Note

I'll be going back to Africa in three weeks time to Burkina Faso to walk and stay with the Gurunsi tribes. In the meantime, here are some pics i shot in 2002 in Mali.

this young boy was in a medersa (coranic school) and was learning the verses of the coran

Trčs belle disposition en diagonale. J'aimerais que l'écriture de la feuille du Coran soit plus visible car cela me semble un des éléments clé de cette image. Malheureusement la petite taille de l'image ne permet pas de rendre l'impact que j'aurais personnellement aimé. Une scčne interessante, bien photographiée.

Oh what a beautiful diagonal, Eric! A very nice tight crop, works wonderfully. So you are leaving for Africa again? How long will we miss you?

Hi Eric,

one of your better efforts. The frame is just right. Everything works together, nothing superfluous or unnecessary in your frame at all. That helps us concentrate on the boy, or rather for me his hands.

Salut Eric: une belle composition ici, sur la diagonale, ce qui dynamise drolement la scene. COuleurs one ne peut plus vraies. Tres joli travail.
Bonne journee,
Francis

Hi Eric

Good pov. Nice comp and color. Could be a little sharper but a good central comp with the koran in focus. Well done.
