Recycling, a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

The Indian government pay people to take care of recycling, in this case it is girls, but most of the time is like this, i do not express my opinion, it is certainly unjust and girls should be in school instead of going to dig in the trash cans, but the situation in India is made up of many contradictions. Despite their of certain poverty condicion the girls seem to enjoy.

Hi Valter, Nice photo and important note. For sure the girls shoud learn at school, on the other hand, recycling is also very important. it is a good nsatural recycling cycle - you eat something in newspaper, then this newspaper is eaten by a cow, and then the fuel is produced :).
beautiful dresses of the girls.

Warm regrads

Ciao Valter
una foto-testimonianza che si va ad aggiungere alle altre molte documentazioni, fotografate e scritte, sulla situazione di certi paesi e che, purtroppo, spesso rimangono tali solo per motivi politoci o economici.
Buona domenica
Carlo

Bonjour Valter,
An interesting and instructive shot about waste and recycling theme
Sad also because these young children don't go to school to work and help their families
Good framing, colors and sharp photo
Nice sunday

Hello Valter,
magnificent portrait with so captivating,vivid colors and delightful,ambient light.
It´s good,that government take care of recycling,but I have to say I have also conflicting feelings when I see these children doing this job instead of having fun like children in other countries.
Excellently executed documentary shot from India with interesting and important note.
Have a nice sunday
Krzysztof

Hello Valter - This is an excellent DL shot and one which highlights the disparity in society. I like the way you have composed this, difficult light but I think the strong contrasts and shadows work well. Have a fine evening Rosemary

Ciao Valter,
altra bella foto dall'India che mostra la vita difficile e povera di questo paese, sebbene ho sentito dire che è in ripresa.

La composizione è molto bella e si arricchisce con l'inserimento dell'ombra a sinistra della bicicletta.

Queste secondo me sono immagini che potresti ben proporre al National Geographic.

Complimenti! TFS!
L'Assessore

Hi Valter,

Yes I agree with your notes - sadly thats the way of life for some people, I do not like to see young lives used in this way.
The girls do look very happy despite their chores of recycling garbage I wonder what the future holds for these children.
I like this picture very much it really depicts daily life in another country.
Great shadow of the bicycle - Excellent image Valter!!!

Kindest regards,
Dawn.
