Lovely description, as always. Your attitude towards travelling and towards what you can see while away reminds me of the style of those great travel writers, such as Kapuściński, for instance. I'd venture the word "humanism" to describe that quality.
Very appropriate title.

Two things strike me in this fine portrait. The first is the beauty of the mother's smile as she presses her face into her child's. The second is the texture of her skin in contrast to that of her baby. How old is this woman? I suspect not very, but the webwork of tiny lines across her brow and hand suggest another story -- one of hard years. A beautiful photo with much to explore and admire.

thanks all for the lovely comments and invites. they are each appreciated!
Cybastean: thanks for the warm compliment. i'm not sure exactly how old she was. i would suspect very early twenties. across the board in senegal the men looked younger than they really were, the women always appearing older than reality. many unfortunate reasons for that...its a fairly oppressive culture for women. they literally carry the economy of the country on their backs and in their hands. i'm quite sure she was no exception.

Photography that celebrates the things we all have in common will create more good than that showing our differences -- or at least that's my theory. This is a beautiful example, Dana. Thanks.

The sentiment you've caught on this shot- Dana, this is just superb people-photography and I'm so impressed at how you've caught this moment- so tender and sensitive, as you've so rightly pointed out in your commentary, it's a sentiment that you can identify with wherever you are in the world. The child's brief misery and the mother's warm affection, the spur of the moment snapshot has grabbed both expressions- this is both technically and emotionally impactful. Well done.

Dear photographer,
Would you like to have your image included in a project to improve the lives of children in school?
We are a nonprofit foundation advocating a sense of personal connection, meaning, and purpose in education. We believe that children can and should lead integrated lives, in which they are encouraged to ask important questions about life, and in which they learn as much about themselves as about the world they live in.
We are in the process of collecting quality images for our web site, for multimedia presentations, and for print materials. We prefer to reach out to individual photographers instead of using commercial stock. Would you be willing to donate the use of this image, on a temporary or permanent basis?
We are glad to attribute the image to you wherever it is used. We can also send you a letter acknowledging a tax-deductible contribution for the commercial value.
Thank you for considering us!
Theodore Timpson
