Train kid Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Trains allow earn living to throngs of people . Not only those officially employed by India Railways, but also to the army of beggars, shoe cleaners, sellers of things and other small private entrepreneurs.
This young boy, together with his friends, spends his time cruising from Raipur to neighbouring cities, offering shoe cleaning and repairing.
I couldn't use his service, as my shoes aren't capable of being cleaned with black shoe paste, but at least we had fun together with small photosession

What a beauty, his eyes have something that captures your attention, it attracts you. It is a great portrait and I wish that I can snatch something like that one day.
Take care, have a good day.

I dont like it. The pic probably flawless (& hence the smiley) but the expression is killing me from inside. I hope you will understand.
