Escondido / Hiding/ Cache-cache, a photo from Quebec, Central

Photographer's Note

Quantos de nos passam a vida a se esconder? A pascoa e um tempo de renovacao, reflexao e purificacao, um novo ciclo que se inicia... Desejo a todos uma Feliz Pascoa!

Gostaria que escrevessem o que a imagem vos invoca, quais sentimentos, ideias ela suscita em cada um. Um tipo de brainstorming. Um exercicio um pouco diferente que me ajudara a aperfeicoar a sensibilidade ao fotografar. Obrigado!

Hi Flavia! and a Happy Easter to you, too!!!
I really like your composition! It is sensitive, candid and also a little bit nostalgic. That's what it's coming through my mind at a glance. The image of the child "hiding" makes me think that childhood it's the only time in your life that you can really "hide" from anything that frightens you, upsets you, hurts you. Children have "their world".
Being a grown up you have to face all these. Even if you would like to "hide", the child inside you is gone (in most of the cases) and then you have to "renovate" yourself!
Congratulation for your composition!
P.S. A larger size would have been better!

I don't think she's hiding; I think she's in prison. The branches are the bars. Maybe she wants to do something she's not allowed to because she is too young, so she feels inprisoned in her youth. Can you remember that feeling?

She stands there wondering whats in the depth of that pond, a small kingdom is there, castles, a prince and a princess.
and a demon...here goes the thoughts.
Well conceived shot.Brillant idea. TFS

Hi Flavia,
this is a very nice photo, with a poetic note. what I feel? it reminds me that every time I hide myshelf, I am waiting for someone to see me, to be interested to me... this is strange... we are hiding from the people, but we need to be discovered by someone...

thanks for the reminding...

Bonsoir Flavia,
Certains se cachent pour jouer,ou pour aimer,et d'autres pour mourir,ici il y a du myst鑽e.
Voyage t'elle dans ses pens馥s vers un monde meilleur?
