Greetings, Ricaurte, Ecuador, 2011

While visiting this small village just outside of Cuenca, we were exuberantly welcomed by a pair of schoolchildren. One of them waved a scarf, grazing the head of the student standing next to her. The flying scarf complements her arm gesture, while the gap-toothed grin of the other schoolgirl adds another dimension to the image.

Thanks, Long, for appreciating what I was trying to express here. Finding significant gestures and facial expressions can be important assets in expressing human values through photographs.

wonderful childhood expressions, beautifully captured, nice observation with the gap-toothed smile with the flowing scarf over her head.
