Hello Gerrit

The girl animates the scene and provides scale. Her sari also adds a bright splash of colour. Good sharpness and interesting old ruins. Tfs!

Hello Gerrit,
I hope she was not in any kind of danger, but she certainly provided you with a fine photo opportunity. The low walls of grey and brown boulders are graphically attractive in their own right, and the girl adds a great human presence, bright colours and a sense of dimensions.
Regards,
Gert

Hi Gerrit
Love this idea: a fascinating scene with only the girl differing from hundreds of years of existence and how she stands out within the ruins that make all the difference.
Well spotted and well timed shot
Best regards

Goedenavond Gerrit,

Dit meisje lijkt mij al groot om nog bij zijn ouders te vertoeven, of op zijn minst aan het oog te ontsnappen.
Maar het is een mooie bijdragen om de kleur wat op te krieken.
U heeft een heel mooie foto gemaakt van de ruins
Met alle details super helder.
Mooi foto werk, bedankt.

Groeten uit Vlaanderen,
John.

Hi Gerrit
Even the photo of the ruins would be interesting but the girl wearing colourful traditional clothes makes it really special. I like the delicate light too.
Best wishes
Kasia

Hi Gerrit
From the layout I guess that these are ruins of a town or village with small houses and alleyways. The girl adds some human interest as well as colour.
cheers

Hi Gerrit,
Well taken, original photo and common scene during a visit of a such site of ruins when children are a bit boring ... good colors and sharpness, tfs.

Hello Gerrit,
This is an interesting scene that grabbed my attention. The girl seems lost in her own world, and I like the various stones that make up the ruins. I also like your POV, slightly looking down. Take care!

Hi Gerrit
looking at your shots, its making me want to re-visit my India gallery as well. obviously, having the girl here is the centre point, without her the scene just doesn't have the same interest. great one. cheers
