raindrops, a photo from Siem Reab, West

Photographer's Note

this was taken right outside "bayon" temple. it was pouring extremely heavily. i was the pnly person walking around under a huge colourful umbrella that i bought in burma. then ..... a little girl and her dog ran out of the stalls near the temple, she was without her clothes and she went happily into the water around the temple
her dog didnt want to miss out on the fun so he went inside as well. she was ecstatic because of the rain and she paid no attention to my presence at all. why should my being there ruin her fun.

Very nice picture, full of live, maybe a little bit or sharp would be needed but it´s OK because you tell us how the monsoon could be. Good Myanmar moment. Congratulations from Madrid.

Hola Sohrab!

The happiness of the little girl and the sole presence of the baby dog represents a moment so perfect!!!

You got them right.
I do not care much about the quality of the pic.
The content is great!

This is an excellent 'daily life'-type shot, full of indivuality and emotion. Well done.

The wonderful picture, Sohrab! It's bringing such a happiness to us, the viewers.
It seems, the dog is not only having fun with her mistress, but also is guarding her.
Thank you for a happy moment!

i'm trying to think of an answer for the unmarked question in the last sentence of your note, but i'll keep it nice ;D...

cool photograph... there's soo much joy in the compo and the dog looks pretty playfull aswell... I like it that there's light in the girls face even in the rain...

Nice detail of the little girl and the dog. Good, natural posing. Why the very small format of the pix? Sharpness not the best - maybe that's why.

nice one Sohrab, beautiful moment. i wish the dog was a bit sharper, now his head is blurred... anyway, very nice work

How intelligent she is - why not go into the pool in the rain, you don't get any wetter! A lovely spontaneous picture showing the happy innocence of children - and dogs.

Such a cute little girl! I love this photo, it expresses such a genuine joy of life, enjoyment of the moment without thinking about the rest in life. Also the presence of the dog is so sweet here, very well captured!
