Good B/W. The contrast of their skin and the wall on the background is superb.
I wonder what he is feeling. He looks so sad and angry...

Bellissima foto, Claudio. Emana tenerezza, rabbia, povertà e desiderio di farcela nonostante tutto.
Foto molto adatta per quel paese che grida aiuto, purtroppo quasi sempre inascoltato.

They say that the eyes are the "windows to the soul" - you've done a wonderful job of capturing great emotion in this shot. I agree with Yukiko that there is an sense of anger and sadness, but I also see an element of tenderness between the two children.
Thank you so much for this glimpse into another world. Beautiful children, and beautiful, touching image.

I love the different expressions of each child. The black and white contrast is sharp and works well here.
