You need to caption your images. They need context. It would add so much to your presentation and your viewer's comprehension.

ReplyDeletethis is my favorite bunch yet. the one with children (praying, methinks) and with the girl's face in a book. love them. well done.
1 has the best light. perfect direction to bring the focus to that little boy.
ReplyDeleteeveryone keeps saying to write more. you obviously don't want to and that is fine. i think your images are telling the story of the day.
you know all the little sub-stories with each child, behind each scene, and i think that is what everyone is dying to hear. they want to be where you are living the "Exotic" life.
but you give context with your intro paragraph and each image carries us through a day with the children. so don't worry about all the "writing". after all, a picture is worth a thousand words, no?
11 is fantastic.
i love you.
it's harder to visit you and your kids when you live across an ocean. that's my least favorite part. the rest is good, though.
ReplyDeletelove you.
what a light and gift you are to africa. may your Light shine before them. i am so proud of you. i love you.
ReplyDeleteso glad you're my teammate!
