Families - a photo on Flickriver

Families

            I didn't tell them to pose or to be in position, but the V-shape position in this shot is very lovely for me. There were about 3-4 families in this shot as they are neighbors who sat in front of their house after lunch.. It was sunny, hot and sleepy atmosphere. 
It was very impressive to walk into their house, talked about an hour with them, friendly beautfiul people. Pokhara is very lovely city with the scene of fewa lake, rivers and Annapurna mountains, part of Himalayan mountain ranges. People there ar so friendly. I was there 4-5 days and I met many new friends everyday, making friend in different ways.
My solo travel was not any moment lonely at all. 

Apart from photo terms such as composition, exposure which may not be so good here I love the atmosphere in here - feeling, love, joy, intention, relationship, friendship, emotions, facial expression, body language, words from their eyes, smiling lips and so on. These are great to me so I clicked to capture the moment without thinking about perfect photography terms. I saw the Japanese movie "The Village Album" before and whwn I took this shot I really understand in my own way that to have internal involving with people in shot and let them post in their natural way 
and click to capture not only photo but the feeling of them.
