Angel

Solomon Islands

Sometimes you just KNOW you have to take a photo....I caught sight of this, impossibly cute, girl helping mind her father's fish stall. It was late afternoon, just after a storm, and soft, golden light was catching her face. Besides eating watermelon, she was waving her hand to keep the flies at bay. Dad assured me that she had a natural aptitude for commerce. Auki, Malaita.

Beautiful. Love the contrast of watermelon and fish!

I can't get past the contrast of her blonde hair with her gorgeous chocolate skin. (I hope she washed her fishy hands before eating the watermelon!)
