Black and white - Kids in the Congo.

Newer Older

Here's is the same capture, remastered.
This picture is not the best quality, but it is one of the strongest shots! I think it really speaks for itself! Kids united! I travelled all through Africa with my parents at a very early age.
I'm the white girl in the picture and Ulli was that time the photographer. I got a cosmopolitan overview right out of the maternity ward!

    Hi, lathan k :
    The white kid in the picture is me, I was on a trip through Africa with my parents and this photo took my mum on the river barge between Lisala and Kisangani, we went with this boat, due to the very bad roads in the area - and the boat was packed with locals , so it just happened that I started to play with this local girl and mum had the camera on hand.
    thanks for your interest on our website!!!

    Amazing pic!
    Would you seriously consider lending this to an online web magazine I am currently developing? The first issue will be published at the end of July. If yes or you'd like more information or if you have others that you'd like published send me an email at c.healthygreenplanet.nel@gmail.com.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Sincerely

    I actually kind of like the fuzziness. It makes it sweet and dreamy in my opinion
