Children of the Island
Whenever traveling to small island for scuba diving, I could not help to feel jealous with the children who live in the island. Their playground is the scuba diver and beach lovers’ paradise: white sand beach and beautiful ocean. These two children I met in one of Papua’s islands were the lucky ones to enjoy the paradise as their daily playground. Who needs television or play-station when you have beautiful beaches and sea to spend your day 🙂
Last month I was absence in posting Monochrome Monday images, thus I am planning to post it on weekly basis again this month. If you are a monochrome photography lover or regularly posting monochrome images, please join me by submitting your monochrome posts. The idea is to host a weekly “link-up party” but only for monochrome photography posts.
The link up will be powered by InLinkz. However I am not sure if it will work well since my blog is not self-hosted and still attached to wordpress.com, I guess we will find out about it later this week.
You can submit more than one post from Monday to Thursday this week, old posts are welcomed!
Only for posts with monochrome images (black & white or color monochrome).
You are welcomed to link your post to this post using the following HTML Code:

Thank you so much Sreejith, that made my day to hear this from you – and thank you for the link! I tweet it as well 🙂
and thanks for the invitation to InLinks 🙂
The beach and sand is their playground, what a wonderful way to put it. The sand, though the photo is in BW, looks so pure and smooth. So sporting of the children to smile for your camera. It must have made your day 🙂
Thank you Mabel! I took the chance when traveling..this is something that will not happen in big cities, to have children posing for lenses as most parents in the city are protective..which I can understand their reason..
So true. Children are innocent and you never know what a photographer may do to an image. But I’m sure you came across as a very nice persona and that’s why the children gravitated towards you. Or they were fascinated by your camera 🙂
such a beautiful photo, Indah, and so are the words to go with it 🙂
Thank you Alexandra 😊😊
