This tells one of the most important stories in many of these communities, the story of water. Apparently they are lucky and have a tap close by so this girl can bring home a meaningful amount for the family. The slow flow of the water is another part of the story. Her clothing and dirty feet complement it very well. I wish the faucet wasn't way up in the corner, but I understand you had to take what you could get.   Posted: 05/07/2024 17:02:30

Thank you Stan for your good words. True, the speaks about the most crucial factor i.e. water, especially during the era of global warming.

I will try to work on you suggestion of providing space to the faucet, for sure. Thanks once again

Vinaya, I like your image and I think it fit in the scope of the travel image. You captured the expression of the this young lady very nicely. We are wondering what she is thinking. I agree with Stan, the image is a little tight and giving a little bit more space one on the right can improve it.

Best wishes

Vinaya, I like this photo very much, from the expression on the girl's face and her colorful clothes to the individual water drops. Well done. (I didn't see the original photo, so I can't comment on the revised composition.The composition as is seems fine.)   Posted: 05/15/2024 22:17:30
