I took these three pictures in the same spot, in the deep countryside of  South Sri Lanka. I first saw the girl on the store front with her 70’s dress, matching the colourful products and advertisement of the background. Just opposite the store, another girl was staring, proud in her father’s sneakers. A few minutes later I passed by a group of girls on their way to school, and two of them very kindly took the pose.  I like the outfits, but I like even more the happy and smiling faces. A taste of insouciance…

In Sri Lanka we loved  The Galle Face Hotel in Colombo, Galle, the tea trials, Mirissa Hill and the elephant orphanage.
