Village girl in Maska, small village on the shore of Lake Malawi. The photo taken early in the morning when most of the people gathered around the fishermen on the shore. This little girl in her dirty white dress was one of the few that stayed in the village, on the main road. She was very quiet and even when I tried to speak to her she remained silent. There was this sadness in her big beautiful eyes that I remember best.
The photo is almost unchanged from the camera. I like the early morning light and colors. Cropped a little bit, sharpened a little bit, and made is tiny frame. Hope you like my little sister.

I like the little boy hiding in the background, with the title it makes me think he's about to be a typical brother and play a trick on her. Very nice image overall.
I have a feeling this is Gina. Great shot and so typical. We living in Africa know these scenes. Africans with their dark skins always make for good photography.
