Jaap, i didn't want to ask you this when i commented on the article itself, but what lens/filter combo did you use for the last shot? the 50 and a yellow? also, what ISO and shutter speed? i love the texture and the fact that whilst you froze most, there was still movement in the teacher's hand. just stunning all around!

ISO 1250, Summilux 50 asph 1/30th, no filter.

very interesting article. loved the kids portraits. the idea of almost "only" B/W a very interesting idea. i always liked photographing in rural areas of Africa. Way safer.. Conclusion= wonderlik.
