[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Street children, living where ever, they can. They often openly sniff glue. Where do they come from? Some run away from abuse, some are orphans, some are thrown out for one reason or another, some just run to be wild. They make their own families as they go, with other unwanted children. Their numbers grow daily. What will happen to them?

Hi Didi,

Interesting shot from streets..
B/W does work well..
Have you seen the movie SALAAM BOMBAY Directed by MIRA NAIR? It's the story of children on the streets of Bombay.

Thank you for this touching shot.
All the best.

Hi Gloriua,
A nasty background with the picture. Nevertheless the picture is nice by composition. You cought a moment in the life of these three boys. It's a pleasure to look at.
Good choice for B&W!
Well done,
Ruut

A very impressive picture Gloria. I like the dark tones, as this is in fact a dark side of society. It's terrible how these kids have to live on the streets...

Good entry!

Cheers,
Anneke
